Adapted by award-winning playwright John Murrell from E.T.A. Hoffmann’s classic novel, The Secret of The Nutcracker features the talents of Brian Cox (The Waterhorse, Running With Scissors) as Drosselmeyer and introduces Janelle Jorde as Clara. This delightful Christmas tale tells the story of 12-year-old Clara’s mystical journey on Christmas Eve to find her father who is fighting as a pilot in World War II. She receives unexpected help from the mysterious Drosselmeyer who befriends Clara and encourages her to believe that she can create magic.

The Secret of The Nutcracker is directed by Eric Till and features the music of Piotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky and John Estacio, performed by the Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra. Four exquisite dance spectacles by the renowned Alberta Ballet are woven throughout to create Clara’s fantasy dream world.

The DVD includes a French-language audio track (Le magicien de blanche vallée) and behind-the-scene features.
