Since its premiere in 1996, The Nutcracker and the Mouse King by Toer van Schayk and Wayne Eagling has captured countless hearts. Skaters gliding over a frozen Amsterdam canal, a grand party that transforms into a snowy forest, and a colourful journey through a magic lantern: these are scenes that continue to enchant both children and adults. The Junior Company dances in the corps de ballet.
