Septime Webre’s heartwarming The Nutcracker returns at Hong Kong Cultural Centre’s Grand Theatre during 15-31 December 2023 to bring festive cheer in a wonderous celebration of early 20th century Hong Kong’s history, characters and natural beauty. This much-anticipated annual extravaganza begins at a lively Christmas Eve party in a gilded mansion where young Clara receives a very unique Nutcracker as a gift.
We are inviting young ballet dancers to audition for the various roles in The Nutcracker. Successful candidates will have the opportunity to share the stage with Hong Kong Ballet dancers!
The Nutcracker Children's Audition has been postponed to 3 September 2023 at Hong Kong Cultural Centre due to forecast bad weather.
