Saint Petersburg Classic Ballet, which has been wowing audiences around the United Kingdom since 2016, will make its Orchard Theatre debut this year with a magnificent rendition of Tchaikovsky’s perennial favourite, The Nutcracker.
This celebrated group, directed by Marina Medvetskaya, brings together classical training and technique with excellent soloists to enthral and entertain audiences in a jaw-droppingly beautiful manner. The purity of the dancing and the traditional staging is complemented by a full orchestra, bringing a taste of imperial Russia to the United Kingdom.
It’s a deliciously merry tale, and this gorgeous new version of The Nutcracker, with stunning baroque embellishments, is the perfect treat for the whole family! Russian classical ballet’s timeless storey of Clara, who is swept away on an amazing trip by her Nutcracker Prince, is the ideal introduction to the art form.
The ballet, which is full of dazzling elements, is performed to the enthralling and instantly recognisable Tchaikovsky symphony.
