The Nutcracker－Russian State Bellet in Shanghai
Date: Jan 21－7:15 pm
Venue: Shanghai Oriental Art Center
Price: 80-880 yuan
The Nutcracker is a two-act ballet, originally choreographed by Marius Petipa and Lev Ivanov with a score by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (op. 71). The libretto is adapted from E.T.A. Hoffmann's story The Nutcracker and the Mouse King. It was given its premiere at the Mariinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg on Sunday, Dec 18, 1892, on a double-bill with Tchaikovsky's opera, Iolanta. The Russian National Ballet Theatre was founded with support of the Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation. The basic principle of the theater is to preserve the creative heritage of Russian ballet and to search for new forms in choreography. Its repertoire includes not only classical performances such as Swan Lake, The Nutcracker and Sleeping Beauty, but also modern ballets set to the music of Mozart, Bach, and Ravel.
