Choreographer Emelianov has been praised by critics for its unique setting ofAct II in the „Land of Peace and Harmony.” To convey his message of peace, Emelianov incorporates an ethereal dove that escorts Masha and the Prince to a land where there is no war and suffering.


Set against Valentin Fedorov’s spectacular scenic design, with dancing, larger-than-life puppets and the backdrop of unicorns, exotic birdsand animals, Moscow Ballet’s Great Russian Nutcracker is a visual delight.
