About The Nutcracker
BEST FAMILY ENTERTAINMENT - 2025 Olivier Awards Nominee
Originally co-produced with Polka Theatre, this Christmas, Olivier Award-winning theatre company Little Bulb (Wolf Witch Giant Fairy, CBeebie’s Christmas Panto) invites you to experience an audacious reimagining of The Nutcracker as a fun-filled, magical, musical quest… with not a tutu in sight!
When two squabbling siblings receive a mysterious nutcracker from their flamboyant Aunt on Christmas Eve, it sets them off on a fantastical journey into ‘The Mousey Realm’. Can they put their differences aside and stop the evil, many-headed Mouse King before he ruins Christmas? Only time will tell…
This bold and brilliantly silly tale is brought to ingenious theatrical life with clever cardboard creations, comic characters and a chorus of cheeky musical mice. It’s crammed full of action, laugh-out-loud comedy, and a sleigh-load of feelgood festive bangers that’ll have you dancing in your seat - with just the right amount of cheese.
**** (4 stars) “JOYOUS! This ebullient retelling of this rodent classic packs an emotional charge” The Stage
