Moscow Ballet's Nutcracker is amazing, from the incredibly talented dancers to the beautiful costumes and scenery, and, of course, the music! My family and I attend this performance every year, and each one is a little different, so there is always something unexpected and new to look forward to. And amid the elegance and grace, there's always a touch of humor. On occasion, a dancer might even give a little wink to someone in the front row! Great fun! The ballet also incorporates young dancers (from pre-schoolers to teens) from a local dance school to play the childrens' roles--always delightful! This is a great holiday tradition for families with children of all ages. I highly recommend it!
