What is the Christmas Ballet called?

Question

My Grandpa has mentioned how much he likes this ballet that is on at Christmas every year, so I was going to get him a copy on DVD. Does anyone know who the performers are or what it is called?

i believe you are refering to "The Nutcracker."

It is a story about a young girl who dreams of rats and then is whisked away to a candy land.

Answer 7

Amy,

I think the Christmas ballet that's most famous is the Nutcracker, like the other answerers said.  It's probably the most celebrated and well-known ballets of all time, and every year thousands of companies perform it.

Probably the most well-known companies that perform the Nutcracker are New York City Ballet and ABT.  Since you are looking for a DVD, I would get the one by NYC Ballet.  I seem to enjoy their performances more than ABT's in this particular aspect, for some reason.

Hope that helped!♥

(P.S. -- another great gift would be tickets to the show!  You can get them at their website!)
