The Goh Ballet: The Nutcracker at Queen Elizabeth Theatre

Why see The Goh Ballet: The Nutcracker?

The Magical holiday treat returns

Now in its tenth fantastic year, the Goh Ballet once again brings its charming production of The Nutcracker to Vancouver, where it has become a holiday tradition. From the moment when you step into the lobby, where you will be serenaded by carol singers, to the stunning dancing and costumes during the ballet itself, this is the perfect Christmas treat for all the family!

The Goh Ballet was established by Chinese dancers Choo Chiat and Lin Yee Goh in 1978. Their daughter, Chan Hon Goh had an illustrious dance career with the National Ballet of Canada, and fittingly, is now the Goh Ballet's artistic director. With roots in both China and Canada, the Goh Ballet has become a world-class dancing institution, with an international cast and creative team.

Outstanding

This year’s Nutcracker was excellent. The whole cast was wonderful, creating moments of incredible beauty and humour with the adorable kids. The guests artists from the National Ballet of China were an incredible addition. Yufei Wang as Snow Queen/Sugar Plum was especially captivating. You just couldn’t take your eyes off her. She made everything she did look with effortless. Zhenxuan Gao was brilliant as the Nutcracker Prince. His moves were so controlled and perfect for the roll. I am so glad that I went this year, and so look forward to next year’s program already. ... Read more
