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.
