New Year’s Eve with NdB Ballet

ABOUT

New Year’s Eve without The Nutcracker

If you want to bid farewell to 2025 with both humor and elegance, we can recommend the New Year’s Eve program at the Janáček Theatre.

The ballet company of the National Theatre has prepared a special New Year’s Eve program for you – a somewhat different Nutcracker, or New Year’s Eve without The Nutcracker.

Choreographer Markéta Pimek Habalová has already created an extraordinarily successful ballet Cinderella for the National Theatre Ballet, which entertained and moved entire families not only here at home, but also in China or Finland. She transformed the classical ballet gem Swan Lake into a humorous version, and at the end of 2023, we presented her distinctive, lighthearted vision of The Nutcracker. You can look forward to Tchaikovsky’s music, traditional and non-traditional costumes, and above all, plenty of unexpected funny scenes.

Even during intermission, you won’t be deprived of cultural entertainment – pianist Petr Duchalík will perform for you throughout the evening.

And since the end of the year must be celebrated joyfully, we would be delighted to invite you for a glass of bubbly together in the theatre foyer at the conclusion.
