Today I went to see my first ever ballet. The Nutcracker by Matthew Bourne is something of a different ballet, I’m told, with a non-conformist setting and method of producing the show.
The charming people at ING Direct provided the tickets via one of their free offers, and who was I to refuse them.
I didn’t quite realise how much of the music I already knew, albeit through my knowledge of Fantasia.
It’s a tremendously entertaining and exhiliarating show, from which you come out having had a wonderful time. I loved every minute of it, and should go to the ballet more often.
