Nutcracker
Pëtr Il’ič Čajkovskij
Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker has been an essential part of the Christmas season across the world for decades. In collaboration with Tamás Solymosi, the renowned Wayne Eagling has choreographed a new, fairy-tale-inspired ballet for this timeless piece of classical music. It marked the first time in the history of the Hungarian National Ballet that an artist of such international acclaim created a choreography specifically tailored to the company, taking into account its unique qualities. The result is a production that brings the festive magic of ballet to the stage in an even more spectacular and dance-rich version than ever before.
