On December 25-31, the Astana Ballet Theater will host the annual performance of the ballet The Nutcracker by Pyotr Tchaikovsky in the expressive and bright version of Vasily Vainonen. The artists of the capital’s theatre invite young admirers of art and their parents to the most atmospheric and magical performance accompanied by the symphony orchestra of the theatre under the direction of maestro Arman Urazgaliyev.
The fairy tale ballet staged by the People's Artist of Russia Altynai Asylmuratova, in which not only the artists of the Astana Ballet Theater, but also students of the Kazakh National Academy of Choreography are involved, has become the most anticipated event in the cultural life of the city from the day of the premiere.
Spectators of all ages watch the famous performance based on Hoffmann's fairy tale "The Nutcracker and the Mouse King" with unfailing delight. This is a romantic story of love and friendship, the triumph of goodness and a happy end, but you still have to worry about the heroes.
Magic is born on the stage of the theater every time the first bars of Tchaikovsky's wonderful music filled with deep meaning sound: a festive atmosphere reigns, permeated with hope, light and goodness, the New Year tree is lit with lights, dolls come to life ...
The Nutcracker has everything to win the love of both the most sophisticated and absolutely unprepared public: the brightness of musical forms, the pomp of the stage design and the beauty of the performing arts.
The events will be held with the support of the Ministry of Culture and Information of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
