Nutcracker 2010
National Arts Centre - Ottawa
I go with my daughter every year. The 2010 nutcracker has some spectacular costumes and a few of the sets are amazing. I would recommend it but I have to say the previous nutcrackers I would have called amazing. Walking away. I could only put my mild sense of disappointment down to an overall lack of magic. The royal winnipeg version has a more whimsical, child focus and magical feel to it. This was more adult. So good, worth seeing but not my favorite.

Our family enjoyed it very much. The second act of the Nutcracker is usually long but in this production time just flew! Would see it next year for sure.
