On Christmas Eve, the party is over and the grand living room in Masha's house is silent. When the clock sticks midnight, the Christmas tree suddenly begins to grow to dizzying heights, and Masha finds herself in a world of dolls, where occurs a battle between an army of toy soldiers and the mice. Masha rescues the Nutcracker Prince bravely fighting, and is invited in reward to the beautiful Land of Snow and the Land of Sweets.
The Nutcracker, a classic set to Tchaikovsky's colorful musical gem, has enjoyed enormous popularity all over the world as a winter treat for family and friends. It is a stream of brilliant dancing, including the beautiful adagio and magical dance in the Land of Snow for Masha and the Nutcracker Prince in Act I, the brilliant character dances and the Grand Pas de deux in Act II. Join us on a captivating Christmas journey with Masha!

Béjart Ballet Lausanne Japan Tour in September 2020 Canceled
It is with great regret that we announce the Béjart Ballet Lausanne Japan tour has been canceled because of the unpredictability of immigration restrictions due to on-going global coronavirus concerns. The tour was due to start on September 11 and conclude on September 22, 2020, with total of 9 shows in Nishinomiya, Sapporo and Tokyo.
Japan Performing Arts Foundation and the Béjart Ballet Lausanne made our best efforts to realize the Japan tour originally scheduled for May 2020 with new dates in September, but unfortunately, we have had to make the decision to cancel it with a heavy heart. We apologize to our valued audiences who have been anticipating the performances but appreciate everyone's kind understanding for the unavoidable situation and your continued support.
Ticket holders for performances in Tokyo will be e-mailed with refund details from your point of purchase. All tickets will be refunded. However, if you are able and would consider donating your ticket(s) value, it would be greatly appreciated. For more information, please contact us at english@nbs.or.jp.

We extend our best wishes for safety and good health to you all wherever you are.
