A beloved Christmas classic, the ever-charming Nutcracker, gets a wildly fresh reinterpretation at the hands of Pori Dance Company and Pori Sinfonietta! This production playfully dreams, jokes and frolics its way through a collision of Tchaikovsky’s music, magic candy canes, and dancing Santas.
Clara, who once received a Nutcracker doll as a child, has grown up. Now a grandmother, she arrives to spend Christmas with her family. But the mysterious sugar plum fairies are about to throw the entire holiday off its tracks…
Welcome to the sweetest, most sugar‑coated family adventure of the year!
