In its glorious 5th year celebrating 100 fabulous performances, Septime Webre’s heartwarming The Nutcracker: A Hong Kong Adventure with Tchaikovsky’s timeless score returns to delight audiences of all ages in an exciting Christmas Eve adventure! Clara, Fritz and the Nutcracker Prince set out to defeat the sinister Rat King to restore order to their magical kingdom, and along the way they meet Hong Kong’s vibrant peacocks, spirited racing jockeys, twirling dim sum, breathtaking bauhinias and more. Audiences will be thrilled by surprising new elements in this year’s enthralling production. With scores of glittering costumes and extraordinary sets, this enchanting classic captures the wonder of childhood and victory over evil as it celebrates early 20th century Hong Kong’s history, characters and natural beauty.
