Featuring approximately 40 dancers, authentic full-size costumes, and grand sets, this production brings the original ballet from its city of birth to Bangkok. The Saint Petersburg National Ballet Theatre, whose main stage is the legendary Hermitage Theatre, has performed The Nutcracker over 5,000 times in more than 45 countries. The show features soloists Oksana Bondareva and Ivan Sitnikov from the Mariinsky Theatre, showcasing world-class ballet in the Vaganova tradition. This timeless ballet transcends language barriers, making it perfect for all ages and backgrounds, from locals to expats. It's an ideal first ballet for children, a magical experience for families, and a memorable date night or holiday tradition for couples. Immerse yourself in two hours of music and movement, a perfect escape from the year's stresses, and an elegant evening worth dressing up for.
