A vibrant classical ballet will soon be performed at the Marina Theatre in Lowestoft.
Russian National Ballet present The Nutcracker, the beloved Christmas classic for the whole family, on Friday, October 13 at 7.30pm.
It is a family orientated production with the fairytale element and some added glitz from the stunning new costumes.
The Nutcracker, written by E.T.A. Hoffman, follows the adventures of a young girl, Marie, who is given a Nutcracker doll for Christmas.
She then enters a dream like land of magic where she soon discovers the Nutcracker prince and dances with the beautiful snowflakes.
A highly accessible ballet, full of familiar music such as the ‘Waltz of the flowers’, and the ‘Dance of the Sugar Plum fairy’.
Set designer Lubov Sidelnikova said: “The Nutcracker is a delightful and kind fairy tale with a gemstone of Tchaikovsky's music.
“I wanted to embed the set design of the ballet as the perfect dream of a flawless world where everyone is happy, and good always triumphs over evil.
“People are always trying to beautify their life and through beauty we try to create harmony and joy.
“In the set design of The Nutcracker I tried to create a sense of lightness and convey a celebration mood.”
Join us for an unforgettable journey in the run-up to Christmas and be part of the magic as it unfolds.
