The Royal Ballet: The Nutcracker
SpArC Theatre, Shropshire, SY9 5AY
Sunday 13th December 2026 2:00PM
Screening Via Satellite
Peter Wright's classic production of this festive family favourite sparkles to the swell of Tchaikovsky’s orchestral score, alongside the glow and grandeur of Julia Trevelyan Oman’s period designs. This Season marks Peter Wright’s centenary.
At a cosy Christmas party, young Clara meets the mysterious magician Drosselmeyer, who gives her a nutcracker doll. When the guests have departed and the house is asleep, Clara sneaks downstairs in search of the doll. Instead, she finds Drosselmeyer, who whisks her away on a journey into a whole world of enchantment: fantastical landscapes of flurried snow and glittering confection where toys come alive and the magic never stops.
170 minutes (including one interval)
