  • PRESS RELEASE Thursday 2 November 2017 for IMMEDIATE RELEASE
    PRESS RELEASE Thursday 2 November 2017 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE THE BELOVED FAMILY TRADITION SCOTTISH BALLET’S THE NUTCRACKER Scotland’s national dance company returns this Christmas and New Year with the most beloved of all festive classics, The Nutcracker. Opening in Edinburgh, The Nutcracker will tour Scotland and the UK visiting Glasgow, Aberdeen, Inverness and Newcastle. Devised by Scottish Ballet’s founder, Peter Darrell, and revived to widespread acclaim in 2014, The Nutcracker is renowned for its sumptuous costumes, striking chocolate box set and snowflakes galore. Tchaikovsky’s magnificent score is performed live by the Scottish Ballet Orchestra. Darrell’s production of The Nutcracker is unique in that the main character, Clara, is danced by a young girl performing alongside the Company’s 40 professional dancers. The cast will also include talented young dancers from Scottish Ballet’s Associates programme (for performances in Edinburgh, Glasgow and Newcastle) and Danscentre, Aberdeen (for performances in Aberdeen and Inverness). These 35 (in total) lucky young dancers will gain the experience of a life-time working on stage with Scottish Ballet in this iconic classic. Over the past 40+ years, hundreds of children have participated in The Nutcracker’s magic, and many have since gone on to have inspiring careers including choreographer Michael Clark, actress Ruth Connell (Rowena MacLeod, Supernatural) and current Scottish Ballet Principal dancer Christopher Harrison. CEO/Artistic Director, Chris Hampson said: ‘It is always a pleasure to bring Peter Darrell’s The Nutcracker to the stage. This production has been at the heart of Scottish Ballet since the 1970’s and has been delighting generations for decades.
