The Nutcracker

A drawing of a young ballerina surrounded by flowers. Around the border is pink vines.

Presented by Victorian Ballet School Darebin

A classic, magical, Christmas tale, The Nutcracker is the perfect mix of music, storytelling, joy and visual wonder. Join Clara as she’s drawn into an enchanting world, where toys come to life, snowflakes dance, and the heroic Nutcracker Prince battles the mischievous Mouse Queen. Perfect for the whole family, The Nutcracker is filled with excitement, humour, imagination, dazzling costumes, sparkling sets, and Tchaikovsky’s unforgettable music.

From the delightful Christmas party to the magical Land of Sweets, dancers will transport you to another world where the Sugar Plum Fairy and the Candy Canes leap and twirl across the stage, like turning the page of a beautifully illustrated storybook.

Also featuring a selection of national character and contemporary dances, Victorian Ballet School Darebin’s production of The Nutcracker is a fun and colourful production for the whole family to enjoy!
