THE NUTCRACKER: A MAGICAL NEW INTERPRETATION

One of the most beautiful Christmas stories arrives in a new 60-minute production, created specifically for the unique setting of Prague's Church of St. Simon and St. Jude. This new Nutcracker presents the best of Tchaikovsky's timeless music and ballet in a compact, dynamic narrative filled with imagination, dance, and Christmas magic.

The new choreography was created by Adéla Pollertová – former first soloist of the National Theatre Ballet and the Hamburg Ballet, recipient of the Thalia Award and other prestigious international honors. Guiding the audience through the story is the mysterious magician and toy maker Drosselmeyer, whose world brings characters to life and sets the stage for Clara's fantastic adventure.

The stage brings together leading dancers from the Czech ballet scene, talented young performers, and children. Classic costumes by legendary costume designer Josef Jelínek, and original lighting design by Daniel Tesař blend with the church's historic architecture, the poetic choreography, and Tchaikovsky's music to create a magical world where reality transforms into fantasy.

A story you know. A Nutcracker like you've never seen before.
