About The Nutcracker by Varna International Ballet

Artistic Director Daniela Dimova
Music Director and Chief Conductor Peter Tuleshkov
This most famous fantasy ballet for all the family begins as night falls on Christmas Eve.
As snowflakes fall outside, the warm glow of the open fire sends flickering shadows across the boughs of the Christmas tree and all the presents beneath.
When midnight strikes, we are swept away to a fairy-tale world where nothing is quite as it seems, toy dolls spring to life, the Mouse-king and his mouse-army battle with the Nutcracker Prince, and we travel through the Land of Snow to an enchanted place where the magic really begins…
Founded in 1947 and currently celebrating its 75th anniversary, the critically acclaimed Varna International Ballet comes to the UK for the very first time.
Renowned for its award-winning soloists and magnificent corps de ballet, the company has been delighting audiences for decades at home and abroad with its performances of the highest quality.
