Description
Welcome to The Nutcracker Noir, where theatre meets fine dining. This brand-new, bold adaptation of the classic Nutcracker puts you at the heart of the story as you step inside Clara’s Dream. Arrive at the Merry Mart and journey through this familiar but surprising world – you will meet familiar and new curious characters as they lead you to centre of our story - the Noir Club. The performance unfolds from your plate to the stage - be it through our Japanese infused starter, a main course evoking memories of Christmases gone by in New York or a show-stopping Spanish inspired dessert whipped into a frenzy with a Tchaikovsky mash-up. This is not dinner and a show. This is immersive dining.
