Overview
Classical ballet based on El cascanueces, presented by the Badisches Staatsballett Karlsruhe at the Gran Teatre del Liceu in Barcelona. It is a narrative dance production that follows the traditional storyline of the work.
El cascanueces is a narrative ballet that follows the traditional storyline of the work: on Christmas Eve, a girl receives a nutcracker as a present and, in a dream, the toy comes to life and leads her into a fantastical world. The Badisches Staatsballett Karlsruhe company stages it in a classical dance register, where movement carries the narrative from beginning to end.
The performance takes place at the Gran Teatre del Liceu in Barcelona. It is a show designed for those seeking a repertory ballet with a recognisable storyline, and it may be especially appealing to attend as a family, given the fairy-tale nature of the story.
This is a dance production in which the story is told through the body and the music, without dialogue. It is an option for those who prefer narrative dance to abstract dance.
