Tchaikovsky's ballet world is a world of magic, wonderland, and fairy tales. The score to his beloved “Nutcracker” ballet is one of the most ingenious and brilliant ever composed for ballet and is extremely elegant. Famous numbers such as the “Waltz of the Flowers,” “the Waltz of the Snowflakes,” and the motifs of the Divertissement enchant children and transport adults back to their childhood. The story of “The Nutcracker” is as Christmassy as the smell of baked apples and the eternal glitter of tinsel—the story of children who, on Christmas Eve, are given a nutcracker that shows them distant lands and peoples in their dreams. It continues to enchant young and old alike as a Christmas ballet. Now, a very special, beautiful version of this ballet classic is coming to the stage for all people ages 4-94, created for children but by no means childish! The loving performance is danced with sophistication and great elegance by a top-class ballet ensemble with outstanding international soloists. Colorful costumes and an imaginative stage design promise to enchant every child's heart. The narrator guides the audience through the entire performance in German. Catchy little poems full of wit, charm, and love captivate young and old alike. The performance whisks its audience away to a wonderland of playfulness and romance, fairy tales and dreams, which should be part of every child's dream!
Tickets are CHF 51.40-67.80 for adults and CHF 31:00-43.30 for kids ages 1-17.
