The Nutcracker

Immerse yourself in the magic of Christmas with The Nutcracker, a masterpiece set to Tchaikovsky's music and Petipa's libretto, choreographed by Ivanov and performed by the Paris Ballet Theatre. This original Franceconcert production is the unmissable event of the 2026-2027 holiday season.

Inspired by the story by E.T.A. Hoffmann, this enchanting fairy tale tells the adventure of young Clara, who receives a nutcracker in the shape of a little soldier as a Christmas gift. On Christmas Eve, the toy comes to life and takes her on a magical adventure: a battle against an army of mischievous mice, a transformation into a handsome prince, and a wondrous journey through a fairytale kingdom where flowers bloom and snowflakes dance.

The premiere of this two-part ballet took place in December 1892 at the Mariinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg. The Nutcracker remains one of the most frequently performed ballets in the world, praised for its enchanting music and impressive choreography.

This show will enchant young and old, a perfect way to celebrate Christmas with family and friends.
