Nutcracker History
 | |
| Chinese Dance - The Nutcracker - Isla, Chloe and Charlotte |
A great love of nutcrackers emerged from The Nutcracker Suite, the fairy tale ballet that inspired families around the world. The beloved ballet brings soldier nutcrackers to life and makes them heroes of the day.
German legend has it that nutcrackers were given as keepsakes to bring good luck. They represented power and strength and would serve a family faithfully to protect them from thieves and danger.
