volcanohunter Posted December 20, 2016 Author Share Posted December 20, 2016 I gather the viewers' choice was Patrice Bart's production starring Nadja Saidkova and Vladimir Malakhov. Gosh, for the Berlin State Ballet that was two productions ago. Link to comment
Roberta Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Is Ovation no longer doing a "Battle of the Nutcrackers"? I recall that they did it last year (Dec 2018) with films from Zurich and Prague among the novelties. In 2018, they were shown in the wee hours...not the prime-time showcase as in the past.
