Inside the Maurice Bejart’s Nutcracker with Elisabet Ros and Gil Roman (Théâtre du Châtelet, 2000)

The Nutcracker as never seen before: behind the scenes. No Clara, nor Mouse King, neither a Sugar Plum Fairy. Instead of the characters, you’ll find choreographer Maurice Béjart and stars Damaas Thijs, Elisabet Ros, Gil Roman, Juichi Kobayashi, Yvette Horner in a look at the gears that make up the biggest ballet show.
