The National Centre RUSSIA has concluded the performances of the new version of the ballet "The Nutcracker." Over five days, thousands of spectators have highly praised this unique production.

The distinctive feature of "The Nutcracker" production at National Centre RUSSIA is the new approach to stage design. Static sets have been replaced with multimedia elements. Guests are enthusiastically sharing their impressions of what they witnessed.

"We felt like we were in a magical world, it's truly mesmerizing, and I think the idea of these multimedia decorations is brilliant," noted Inna Krotkova.

"I really enjoyed the dances and the little rats, as well as the funny Nutcracker. I also liked the ending," added young viewer Miron.

The Prince was performed by the principal dancer of the Bolshoi Theatre, laureate of international competitions, and winner of the Soul of Dance award, Igor Tsvirko, while Marie was performed by the leading soloist of the Bolshoi Theatre, laureate of the International Ballet Prize Dance Open, Kristina Kretova. The magnificent music of Tchaikovsky, the skill of the dancers, and over 100 unique costumes created by Russian and French theatrical masters made the ballet a true celebration for art enthusiasts.
