Great Russian Nutcracker is Moscow Ballet’s beloved holiday production, choreographed by Stanislav Vlasov. Known for its striking two-dancer Dove of Peace with a 20-foot wingspan, Act II unfolds in the Land of Peace and Harmony, blending Russian cultural imagery with lavish production: 200 costumes, hand-painted backdrops, and a towering Christmas tree. The show enjoys a robust touring history, with more than 130 engagements annually across the United States and Canada since its North American debut in 1993.
