Time Out says

Mark your calendars: the Regent Theatre is about to be transformed into the enchanting world of The Nutcracker, with Tchaikovsky's beloved score performed by a full live orchestra. What better way to get into the Christmas spirit?

From Saturday 5 December to Thursday 24 December, BIG Live brings the magic of its sell-out season back to Melbourne. This year's production unveils lavish new costumes and breathtaking new sets, with 35 dancers taking audiences from a snow-dusted winter wonderland to the Land of Sweets, where the Sugar Plum Fairy reigns.

The Nutcracker is the perfect festive outing for ballet devotees, Tchaikovsky lovers, and families alike. Matinee and evening performances are available, with tickets from $78 to $208.

Families save $10 per ticket. Book four tickets as one adult and three child, or two adult and two child, and the savings are applied at checkout.
