The perfect holiday treat for the whole family! RWB’s Nutcracker–set in 1913 Winnipeg – updates the best of the original ballet with uniquely Canadian elements, such as a snowy hockey game, Mounties, and a model of Parliament Hill! Nutcracker is young Clara’s Christmas fantasy, featuring Filbert the Bear, dancing mice, a Sugar Plum Fairy, a magically growing Christmas tree, and new this year 13 adorable polar bears. With dazzling choreography by Galina Yordanova and Nina Menon, gorgeous scenery by Brian Perchaluk, 175 lavish costumes by Paul Daigle, and Tchaikovsky’s memorable music, Nutcracker is a spun-sugar holiday confection – an enchanting visual and musical feast for all ages.
