The Nutcracker - Hall for Cornwall

About the event

The Nutcracker is a timeless ballet that captures the wonder of the holiday season through a dazzling blend of music and dance. Based on E.T.A. Hoffmann's story The Nutcracker and the Mouse King, it follows young Clara as she embarks on a fantastical adventure after her beloved nutcracker toy comes to life. Featuring Tchaikovsky's iconic score, the performance transports audiences to an enchanted world of battling mice, snowflakes, and a vibrant Land of Sweets, ruled by the Sugar Plum Fairy.
