Season of The Nutcracker: Awaiting the Overture
Atlanta Ballet's staging of The Nutcracker uses elaborately crafted scenery combined with advanced techniques in lighting and video projection to enhance the story's magic. This two-act ballet takes place in a charming German city on Christmas Eve and pulls in elements from E.T.A. Hoffmann's 1816 story, "The Nutcracker and the Mouse King," set to the iconic Tchaikovsky score. [From Kennedy Center's "Playbill."]
