The sweetest of all Matthew Bourne’s treats returns to Wales Millennium Centre for one week only, and it’s a Nutcracker! for all seasons, adored by critics and audiences alike.
““A witty, wonderful, rip-roaring spectacular””
““The sweet treat we all deserve””
With family-sized helpings of Bourne’s trademark wit, pathos and magical fantasy, Nutcracker! follows Clara’s bittersweet journey from a darkly comic Christmas Eve at Dr. Dross’ Orphanage, through a shimmering, ice-skating winter wonderland to the scrumptious candy kingdom of Sweetieland, influenced by the lavish Hollywood musicals of the 1930s.
Anthony Ward’s delectable sets and costumes combine with Bourne’s dazzling choreography to create a fresh and charmingly irreverent interpretation of the classic. Expect a sprinkling of delicious new surprises in this reinvented production.
