1) Royal Ballet: The Nutcracker, Royal Opera House

Skye says:

"I have a 5-year-old daughter who loves ballet and this is the first year she'll be old enough to go to a matinee. The Nutcracker is the perfect ballet to watch at Christmas, and you can't beat the Royal Opera House at Covent Garden for atmosphere and tradition."
