    ACT ONE It is Christmas Eve in Pittsburgh over 100 years ago. This is the Stahlbaum’s house in the Shadyside neighborhood. On the street outside, Mr. Drosselmeyer and his Nephew unload Christmas gifts from their cart to take to the Stahlbaum’s party. The Nephew wears a mask because he has been cursed by the Rat King. The mask scares some of the people attending the party. Inside the house, Marie, Dr. Stahlbaum’s daughter, gets ready for the party. She’s reading a book called Kaufmann’s Christmas Stories for Boys and Girls. Her parents present her with two special gifts because she’s growing up: a beautiful scarf and a pair of pointe shoes. The Stahlbaum’s Christmas Eve party begins. There are adults and children dancing, trimming the Christmas tree, and exchanging gifts. Drosselmeyer and the Nephew enter the party. Drosselmeyer makes a pirate doll and other dolls come to life and dance! Drosselmeyer gives Marie a wooden Nutcracker doll. Marie’s brother Fritz breaks the Nutcracker, and the Nephew and Drosselmeyer fix it for Marie. Everyone at the party is afraid of the Nephew because of his mask. But Marie knows that he is kind. After much fun and festivity, the party ends. The guests leave, and the Stahlbaum family exchange their own gifts and go to bed. But Marie has forgotten her Nutcracker. As the clock strikes midnight, she tiptoes back downstairs to find him. Marie is not alone, though. The whole house is under a kind of spell. Giant rats and mice skitter after Marie.

However, he approach adopted is equally appropriate to older students and the list of ‘Things to do and discuss’ contains tasks to challenge all, including 'A' level students. The teacher is invited to select and/or adapt according to the needs of the situation. Pupils attending a live performance of the ballet should be familiar with the story and, ideally, should be introduced to a number of 'anchor points' - features to notice and moments to listen for. For convenience, tasks and activities are often grouped around a specific art form, but it is important to stress that ballet involves several art forms. Listening without the visual dimension, or focusing on design elements independently of the music and the dance, are valuable approaches in raising pupils' awareness but they should be regarded as means to an end. In ballet the whole is much more than the sum of the parts. To make most effective use of this pack it may well be necessary to copy and disseminate the material among specialist or other teacher colleagues.
