SUMMARY:Travel Trip – Nutcracker, IMF Cinema in Ondara
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\n\n\nNutcracker\n\n\n\nA Christmas treat with Clara and her Nutcracker doll, dancing mice, toy soldiers, the Sugar Plum Fairy, Handsome Prince, a Magician, and Kingdom of Sweets all danced to some of Tchaikovsky’s most recognisable music.\n\n\n\n\n\nScreenshot\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWednesday 10 December\n\n\n\nThis is a live relay direct from the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden.\n\n\n\nLoosely based on a story by Hoffmann, the ballet begins in the 19th-century German home of the Stahlbaums, where they are hosting a Christmas party. Clara is given an enchanted Nutcracker doll on Christmas Eve. As midnight strikes, she creeps downstairs to find a magical adventure awaiting her and her doll.\n\n\n\n\nClara – a young girl\n\n\n\nDr Stahlbaum – her father\n\n\n\nMrs Stahlbaum – her mother\n\n\n\nFritz – her brother\n\n\n\nHerr Drosselmeyer – a relation, a magician\n\n\n\nHans-Peter/The Nutcracker – Herr Drosselmeyer’s newphew, trapped inside a Nutcracker doll\n\n\n\nHarlequin, Columbine, Soldier and Vivandière – Dolls that Herr Drosselmeyer brings to life\n\n\n\nMouse King – Clara and the Nutcracker battle the Mouse King\n\n\n\nThe Sugar Plum Fairy – ruler of The Kingdom of Sweets\n\n\n\nHer Prince – ruler of The Kingdom of Sweets\n\n\n\n\nACT I: CHRISTMAS EVE\n\n\n\nWhen Drosselmeyer is invited to entertain the guests at a Christmas party that his friends, the Stahlbaums, are giving, he decides that this could well be the opportunity he has been looking for.\n\n\n\nTheir daughter, Clara, is a little younger than Hans-Peter, who is magically imprisoned in the Nutcracker. What better time than Christmas, when the mice are busy stealing the leftovers, for a confrontation between the Mouse King and the Nutcracker? He decides to put the Nutcracker in the tender care of Clara and makes a special Christmas Angel to guide her through her task.\n\n\n\nACT II: THE KINGDOM OF SWEETS\n\n\n\nWhen all the guests have departed and the house is asleep, Clara, in search of the Nutcracker, creeps downstairs and discovers Drosselmeyer waiting for her. He draws her into his own special world of fantasy where time is suspended, and exerts all his powers to transform the living room into a great battlefield and summons the Mouse King. In the ensuing fight between the mice and the toy soldiers the Nutcracker defeats the Mouse King, but only through the intervention of Clara, who, out of compassion, saves the Nutcracker’s life. Transformed into his real self, he dances with Clara and they find themselves in The Land of Snow. Drosselmeyer then sends them on a magic journey to the Sugar Garden in The Kingdom of Sweets where they meet The Sugar Plum Fairy and her Prince.\n\n\n\nFreed at last from his imprisonment inside the Nutcracker, Hans-Peter recounts to The Sugar Plum Fairy his great adventure and how Clara saved his life. They then join in a magnificent entertainment put on by Drosselmeyer to honour them for their bravery.\n\n\n\nReturning to reality, Clara runs out into the street in search of Drosselmeyer and encounters a strangely familiar young man, while back in his workshop Drosselmeyer prays that his efforts will be rewarded. His nephew returns; the spell has indeed been broken.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe performance lasts about 2 hours 20 minutes, including one interval. Act I is 50 minutes long, the interval 30 minutes and Act II 50 minutes.\n\n\n\nDetails for pick up in Javea\n\n\n\n18:15 Interiors\n\n\n\n18:30 MasyMas N332\n\n\n\n**Please ask if you would like to be picked up/dropped off at the bus station.\n\n\n\nEstrella Travel will drop us off outside the main entrance to the Shopping centre and pick-up at the same spot at 11:30.\n\n\n\nIt is a late finish so please make your way as quickly as possible through the shopping centre to the main entrance for the bus.\n\n\n\nThe tickets are numbered.
