There is something incredibly Christmassy about going to the ballet, especially when it's a production of the Nutcracker. This particular ballet has been a tradition for many families and has one of the most recognisable scores.
Theatre Royal is hosting the Northern Ballet's production of the Nutcracker which is perfectly timed in the run-up to Christmas. The show runs until Saturday, November 19.
I've grown up with ballet as my mother would take me as a child and I've repaid the favour by taking her as an adult. As a result, I've been lucky to see wonderful productions of the Nutcracker including Matthew Bourne's show last year also at Theatre Royal.
