Choreographed and directed by Zhao Ming, Guo?Nian?offers?a?visual celebration that blends the European classical ballet with the symbolic richness of Chinese culture. With over 60 dancers on stage, the performance?transforms the?European Christmas narrative into a vibrant Chinese New Year celebration. In this unique production, the story is driven by Tchaikovsky’s original score, now reimagined and set in a traditional Beijing fair on Chinese New Year’s Eve. Chinese cultural symbols such as the twelve zodiac animals, red lanterns, and creatures from Chinese folklore turn the classic into an enchanted journey between reality and dream.
