Fun Facts

150 costumes appear onstage in each performance of George Balanchine’s The Nutcracker®. The only costumes still in use from the original Karinska-designed 1954 production are the two women’s embroidered appliqué tunics in the Tea dance. 

The special instrument played for the Sugarplum Fairy’s solo is a celesta. Tschaikovsky used the newly-invented celesta to make the music for the Sugarplum Fairy sound like the "sprays of a fountain" as the choreographer Marius Petipa requested.
