Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's legendary ballet The Nutcracker comes to life once again on stage - performed by the Italian company of the Classical Ballet of Naples, which brings audiences an updated production of one of the most recognizable works of world choreography.
For more than a hundred years, The Nutcracker has remained an integral part of Christmas traditions and a symbol of magic, music and dreams. For the 2025-2026 season, this timeless masterpiece is once again touring to bring audiences an atmosphere of celebration, beauty and inspiration.
Classical Ballet Naples' production of The Nutcracker combines a careful treatment of Tchaikovsky's original music and choreography with a modern stage reading. The audience is treated to the story of Clara, a girl who on Christmas night embarks on a fantastic journey where toys come to life, armies of mice fight and the magic of love and kindness reigns.
Every element of the performance - from the exquisite costumes to the impressive lighting design - creates a unique theatrical space in which the Christmas fairy tale becomes reality. The fine plasticity of the artists, virtuoso technique and expressive stage acting make the production a highlight of the theater season.
Tchaikovsky's music is the heart of this ballet. Its melodies, filled with awe and delight, transport the audience into a world of miracles, where dreams come to life and everything is possible.
"Especially at Christmas time, The Nutcracker is more than just a ballet. It is a door to a world where miracles are possible. For one evening, we believe: anything can happen - especially if you believe in love," notes the artistic directorate of the group.
The Naples Classical Ballet "Nutcracker" 2025-2026 tour promises to be a bright event for all fans of classical art and a real gift for the whole family.
