the Nutcracker story
“The Nutcracker” is the story of a young girl, Clara, who is gifted a toy nutcracker at her Christmas party by her eccentric relative, Drosselmeyer. During the night, her nutcracker doll comes to life and, after winning a battle with the mice, takes Clara on a magical adventure to the Sugar Plum Castle, where she meets characters from around the world such as the Sugar Plum Fairy, Arabian dancers, Dew Drop Fairy, Spanish dancers, Russian and Chinese dancers, and more!
