The Nutcracker

Dive in to Christmastime with Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker, a magical adaptation of E. T. A. Hoffmann's tale.

Full of extraordinary characters, far-off lands and super-sweet treats, this wonderful tale is brought to life by the brass and percussion players of the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ National Orchestra of Wales and narrator Kizzy Crawford in our special video, including BSL interpretation.

And there’s more: get creative and have fun with some arts/crafts and music activities we’ve created to keep you entertained over the festive period! Discover the story of The Nutcracker, become a prince or princess by making your own crown, and enjoy making music inspired by the Nutcracker dances.

Share your creations with us on social media – we’d love to see them!
