About this event
As a commemorative project for the 40th anniversary of the founding of Sendai Cultural Foundation, The Tokyo Ballet presents the classic Christmas ballet "The Nutcracker" at Sendai Bank Hall Izumiti 21 Main Hall. Since its premiere in 2019, this original production by The Tokyo Ballet has brought emotional moments to many audiences. The stage is adorned with magnificent set designs crafted by European artisans in the heartland of ballet, along with dazzling costumes. Miraculous and beautiful stage mechanics and fantasy magic that can only be savored in a theater—such as a Christmas tree growing larger right before your eyes and adorable dances by dolls—will invite the audience into a world of dreams. Along with Tchaikovsky's exhilarating music, visitors can enjoy a brilliant stage filled with the unique artistry of The Tokyo Ballet. Cast includes Maria Adachi as Masha, Haruo Niyama as the Nutcracker Prince, and The Tokyo Ballet.
