> Ballet d’Jèrri presents Lé Craque-nouaix (The Nutcracker), choreographed by Katya Bourvis.

Inspired by the dark imagination of ETA Hoffmann's 1816 story, The Nutcracker and the Mouse King, and paying loving homage to the countless re-imaginings of Marius Petipa's iconic 1892 ballet.

This Christmas, Ballet d’Jèrri brings an original Nutcracker for Jersey, Lé Craque-nouaix. Our new interpretation combines Tchaikovsky’s glorious score, professional dancers and more than 40 local performers. Elegant, atmospheric, whimsical and nostalgic, Lé Craque-nouaix invites audiences to suspend their disbelief, step back into the wonder of childhood, and indulge themselves, for one rare moment of the year, in refusing to completely leave it behind.

At Jersey Opera House, 27–29 November 2026, with Pay What You Can tickets. Jersey's National Ballet is proud to present the world premiere of this production thanks to the generous lead sponsorship of Ogier.
