Of the many productions of Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker I have seen throughout the years, few are more visually striking than this one recently staged at the Rome Opera House.
In a theatrical design full of charming detail, seasonal coziness and fairytale magic, the Waltz of the Snowflakes stood out, and was, as always, pretty challenging to photograph.
The sets were created by Andrea Miglio, the costumes by Gianluca Falaschi, lighting by Valerio Tiberi and the video projections by Igor Renzetti and Lorenzo Bruno. The overall production and choreography is by Paul Chalmer.
Seen at the Teatro dell'Opera di Roma, Teatro Costanzi, o, 21 December 2024. Artists of the Ballet of the Teatro dell'Opera di Roma.
