ca Tchaikovsky’s iconic ballet, The Nutcracker — performed at this time each year in cities across the globe — varies from production to production, though most adhere to the story of a young girl’s journey to a magical land on Christmas Eve. Contemporary arrangements add and subtract, though children always play an integral part in the production. That’s good news for some young dancers from Greater Victoria, who have been cast in a variety of roles in the Royal Winnipeg Ballet’s upcoming production presented at the Royal Theatre by Dance Victoria.
