MATTHEW BOURNE'S NUTCRACKER!

1 X 80' HD / 4k
DIRECTED BY MATTHEW BOURNE AN ILLUMINATIONS PRODUCTION

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, influenced by the lavish Hollywood musicals of the 1930s.

 

Tchaikovsky’s glorious score and Anthony Ward’s newly-refreshed delectable sets and costumes combine with Bourne’s dazzling choreography to create a fresh and charmingly irreverent interpretation of the classic.  

 

Expect a sprinkling of delicious new surprises in this brand-new film of the reinvented production.
