About Nutcracker

Nutcracker at the London Coliseum is English National Ballet’s production of the Tchaikovsky ballet, set on Christmas Eve in Edwardian London. It follows Clara after a visit to Drosselmeyer’s Sweets & Delights Emporium, leading her into a journey that includes a glittering Christmas party, a battle with the Rat King, an ice realm and the Land of Sweets & Delights.

The production features over 100 dancers and musicians, with choreography by Artistic Director Aaron S. Watkin and Olivier Award-winner Arielle Smith. Sets and costumes are designed by Dick Bird, and English National Ballet Philharmonic performs Tchaikovsky’s score live.

Reviews quoted for the production describe it as “Vibrant” (Financial Times) and “astoundingly pretty” (The London Standard). English National Ballet says the production returns to the London Coliseum for the festive season.

Key facts: Duration 2 hours, including one interval. English National Ballet Philharmonic performs live.
