dvds > Baryshnikov's The Nutcracker £7.99
synopsisThe Nutcracker The Nutcracker is Mikhail Baryshnikov’s breathtaking and critically acclaimed Emmy-nominated production. This spectacular performance is danced by the magnificent team of Baryshnikov, one of the greatest classical dancers of the century, and Gelsey Kirkland, both showcased at the peak of their careers, along with members of the American Ballet Theatre. The Nutcracker is the magical and light-hearted story of a small girl’s dream on Christmas Eve. Mikhail Baryshnikov is the toy Nutcracker-turned-Prince in this exhilarating production that marked his initial and universally acclaimed choreographic effort. Gelsey Kirkland is little Clara the dreamer, and Alexander Minz is Drosselmeyer, the wizard who conjures up the dream and eventually dispels it. Extravagant sets and costumes bring the beauty of this winter wonderland to life. Celebrated by critics and public alike, Baryshnikov’s The Nutcracker delivers a brilliant and sparkling adaptation of the famous ETA Hoffmann tale along with Tchaikovsky’s classic score. dvd information
