Description
The longest-running Nutcracker in the city, Westside Ballet’s lavish production has been a Los Angeles tradition since 1973.
From the moment the lights dim, you’ll be transported to a magical world of Christmas fantasy. The merriment and joy of the season is celebrated in the Victorian-style party scene, menacing mice battle with toy soldiers, and a dashing Prince travels with Clara through the Land of Snow where swirling flurries are conjured by the sparkling Snow Queen. As the curtain rises on Act II, angels poised on clouds herald the arrival of Clara and her Prince to the Land of the Sweets. Clara is entertained by Spanish chocolate, Arabian coffee, Peppermints, Chinese tea, marzipan Mirlitons, and more, as they each perform for her.
Lastly, flowers waltz around the shimmering Dew Drop Fairy before the radiant Sugar Plum Fairy and her elegant Cavalier dance their grand pas de deux.
The entire Kingdom bids Clara farewell as she returns home in a walnut boat that sails through a glittering night sky.
