Thu 4 - Sat 13 Dec | Kiri Te Kanawa Theatre, Aotea Centre

 

Summer 2025 will be celebrated with an eagerly anticipated new production of the world’s most beloved ballet classic.

A uniquely Kiwi touch transports our audiences to the nostalgia of childhood holidays at the beach in Act I, before being carried in Act II to the snowy Southern Alps, where we encounter a fairytale Kingdom of the Sweets – some of which may look quite familiar…

This new production will be created by RNZB Artistic Director Ty King-Wall and will be accompanied by a live orchestra, with a formidable team of creatives who will bring this magical production to life.
