The Nutcracker
The Salzburg Marionette Theatre is a „big“ theatre with „small“ actors. For more than 100 years, the puppets have enchanted grown-ups and children alike. The visitors are taken to a magical world of opera, fairy tale, or musical.
In the center of Tschaikowsky’s ballet is Clara. She is given a nutcracker for Christmas from her godfather Drosselmeyer. When she falls asleep, she dreams that the nutcracker is head of an army of soldiers fighting the army of the king of mice. With Clara’s help, the nutcracker wins the battles, turns into a prince and takes her to the Land of Sweets. In the end, Clara wakes up.
