Chinese New Year: The National Ballet of China

Two further performances for this Abu Dhabi Festival opener, a reimagined version of The Nutcracker from a company noted for its dazzling hybrid of western ballet and Chinese culture. Tchaikovsky’s score is the backbone to a colourful tale brought to life by vibrant characters and radiant choreography as a young Chinese girl celebrates the New Year by embarking on a mystical journey through a world of festive Chinese customs … Recommended, if you can get hold of a ticket.

There are performances at 4.30pm and 8pm.
