With family-sized helpings of Bourne’s trademark wit, pathos and magical fantasy, Nutcracker! follows Clara’s bittersweet journey from a darkly comic Christmas Eve at Dr. Dross’ Orphanage, through a shimmering, ice-skating winter wonderland to the scrumptious candy kingdom of Sweetieland.

'KITSCH, CERTAINLY, BUT BEAUTIFULLY COOKED! AND SERVED UP WITH A SHINING EAGERNESS BY THE CAST'
