Der Nussknacker
In diesem Ballett in zwei Akten laden die Puppenspieler Herr und Frau Drosselmeyer am Heiligen Abend in ihr Haus ein und führen Marie in ihre Werkstatt, wo Spielzeug repariert wird und sie in Traumwelten eintaucht. Auf der Bühne begleiten die Zuschauer eine Reise durch Fantasiewelten und Wirklichkeiten, in denen ein Mäusekrieg als Spiel inszeniert wird. Getanzt wird die Choreografie vom Ballett Halle vor märchenhaften Kulissen mit nostalgischem Charme.
