Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker is the Yerevan Opera's holiday ballet: the first night is 5 December and the last 12 February 2027. Karen Durgaryan is music director and conductor, Georgy Kovtun the choreographer, and the sets and costumes are by Vyacheslav Okunev.
Two acts and one interval, 1 hour 50 minutes in all: 45 minutes an act and a 20-minute interval between them.
