It is Christmas Eve, and Clara and Fritz’s parents are throwing their annual holiday party. Their mysterious guest, the toymaker Herr Drosselmeyer, arrives with life-size dancing dolls to entertain the family and their guests, but he saves his most special gift for his god-daughter Clara, a nutcracker doll. That night, the tree begins to grow, the toy soldiers and the Mouse King have a battle, and Clara’s nutcracker turns into a handsome prince.
This one-hour, child-friendly adaptation of the complete ballet score is given a beautiful retelling of the story by Jim Weiss, America’s premiere storyteller. Perfect for ballet students, families going to see the Nutcracker ballet, and lovers of Tchaikovsky and Jim Weiss.
