The Nutcracker

The Legendary Moscow Nikulin Circus on Ice proudly presents the show “The Nutcracker.”

“Spectators were amazed by the vivid, colorful performances and acrobatics. It was impossible to tell whether they were circus performers on skates or figure skaters with circus skills. One breathtaking performance followed another, leaving virtually no time to catch one’s breath…” (Frankfurter Neue Presse, Germany).

Hanukkah is truly a time of miracles, when even the most cherished childhood dreams—remembered by many into adulthood—come true. One such dream is visiting a show by the Moscow Nikulin Circus, recognized as the best in Russia and one of the world’s leading circuses.
