Did you know…?
Now a Christmas classic, Tchaikowsky’s Nutcracker premiered on December 18, 1892 less-than-favorable reviews. Poor casting and the audience’s unfamiliarity with the plot kept the performance from being considered a success. Happily, the music and the story have endured, and audiences worldwide now look forward to this beloved ballet every holiday season.
