The Nutcracker
The Royal Ballet
The magician Herr Drosselmeyer needs to save his nephew. Hans-Peter has been transformed into a Nutcracker; the only way to save him is for the Nutcracker to defeat the Mouse King and find a girl to love and care for him. A flicker of hope comes in the form of the young Clara, whom Drosselmeyer meets at a Christmas party. With some magic, a cosy Christmas gathering turns into a marvellous adventure.
Peter Wright’s The Nutcracker has enchanted audiences since its 1984 premiere by the Company.
Featuring Tchaikovsky’s most familiar melodies and brought to life by Julia Trevelyan Oman’s exquisite designs, The Nutcracker is sure to be a festive firecracker for all ages.

Mae angen i'r consuriwr Herr Drosselmeyer achub ei nai. Mae Hans-Peter wedi cael ei drawsnewid yn efail gnau ; yr unig ffordd i'w achub yw i'r Efail Gnau drechu Brenin y Llygod a dod o hyd i ferch i'w garu a gofalu amdani. Daw ychydig o obaith ar ffurf Clara, y mae Drosselmeyer yn cwrdd â hi mewn parti Nadolig. Gyda rhywfaint o hud, mae cynulliad Nadolig clyd yn troi'n antur ryfeddol.
Mae Y Gefail Gnau gan Peter Wright wedi swyno cynulleidfaoedd ers ei berfformiad cyntaf ym 1984 gan y Cwmni. Yn cynnwys alawon mwyaf cyfarwydd Tchaikovsky ac wedi'u bywiogi gan ddyluniadau coeth Julia Trevelyan Oman, mae'r Efail Gnau yn siŵr o fod yn dân gwyllt Nadoligaidd i bob oed.
