Choreography: Jean-Christophe Maillot
His version of the classical ballet The Nutcracker is an innovative interpretation of the well-known subject. It was Maillot’s brainchild to transpose the ballet into the world of circus, while keeping the basic tenet wherein the real world blends with the fantasy world of childhood. In the first part of the ballet, set in Paris during the Second Empire, he alters the plot by splitting the character Drosselmeier into a couple- Drossel and Meier – seen all throughout the ballet as they inspire Marie’s initiatory dream. The ballet reaches its climax in the second act: the world of circus then opens up to little Marie, with a series of funny, touching and poetic scenes that will delight and enchant both the young and old.
The recording presented on the DVD in hand was recorded in the Festival Tent of Fontvieille in 1999.
