Experience the magic of New York City Ballet’s iconic holiday classic, recorded live during New York City Ballet’s 2011 season at Lincoln Center, George Balanchine’s The Nutcracker®, based on the Alexandre Dumas version of E.T.A Hoffmann’s “The Nutcracker and the Mouse King” (1816). Balanchine’s stunning choreography shines amidst awe-inspiring set pieces, ornate costumes, and grand one-of-a-kind visual effects, like the one-ton Christmas tree that grows to an astonishing 40 feet on stage.
