The world's most performed ballet will be performed by the UCB!
 
The magical Christmas fairy tale told through the ballet choreography by one of the most famous choreographers, ballet master and winner of numerous awards and international recognitions - Valery Petrovich Kovtun.
 
The Ukrainian Classical Ballet troupe, composed of merited artists of Ukraine, winners of numerous ballet awards and recognitions, provided Kovtun's choreography with an inspired, lively and glamourous appearance with unique scenery and directing solutions, imposing decorations, astounding costumes and exciting video projections. That uninhibited and creative approach to the most famous holiday fairy tale immerses the audience in real Christmas magic, which doesn’t leave even the most demanding ballet audiences indifferent.
 
The Ukrainian Classical Ballet is a ballet troupe that performs the most beautiful and most interesting classical ballets on the international ballet scene. They give more than 300 ballet performances a year. Last year, they had more than 70 performances of The Nutcracker only. The troupe includes top dancers, principal dancers and soloists of Ukrainian national theatres, whose artistic expression upholds the highly regarded tradition of the Russian ballet and ballet school. The Zagreb audience has had several opportunities to see some of them in the ballets such as Radio & Juliet, Quatro and The Great Gatsby Ballet.
