Press Rews
"er Wright's production is gloriously traditional, brilliantly choreographed, lahly spectaar...The camera is always in the right place and Tchaikovsky's miraously inspired score, of which one never tires, is marvellously played..." (The Penguin Guide )
"...a sure-fire house filler and the perfect introduction to someone coming to the art form for the first time. There is the marvellous music of Tchaikovsky's inspired score – with tunes that anyone can whistle – colourful dances, lush costumes and lashings of stage magic. The arrival of the mouse king and the Christmas tree transformation are dazzling and the Royal Ballet's production is superb..." (Birmingham Evening Mail )
