dirac Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 A review of the English National Ballet's Nutcracker by Rosemary Waugh for i. Quote It’s comforting, it’s cosy, it’s (more than) competent, but there are far fewer strokes of genius to it than either the Royal Ballet’s immaculate, frost-tinted offering at the Royal Opera House, or Matthew Bourne’s Willy Wonka’d remix, which is at Sadler’s Wells. Peter Salter's review in The Daily Express. Quote The star of the show is undoubtedly Erina Takahashi. Celebrating 25 years with the company, she is an absolute dream throughout as Clara, whether girlish and giddy in the initial Act 1 pas de deux or fiercely flawless in the climatic Grand Pas de Deux when she is transformed into the Sugarplum Fairy.
