It opens with a Christmas party at the Mayor’s house, with his child Clara the central figure of the tale. She is given a nutcracker that her brother promptly breaks. After bed, she returns to the family room and cradles the broken pieces of the nutcracker as she falls asleep. She falls asleep at the foot of the family’s enormous Christmas tree, and dreams that she saves a prince from the evil Mouse King. In his gratitude, the prince invites her to his castle for a banquet in her honor.
Enter the lovely Sugar Plum Fairy, the queen of the fairies, who acts as a guide to the evening’s festivities for Clara. Her beautiful Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairies features a solo by the bell-like celesta, a new instrument that Tchaikovsky debuted in the ballet. The ballet is one of the most popular of all time and has been set and costumed in many different ways. Barbie as the Sugar Plum Fairy wears a pink and ivory ballet costume that exquisitely captures the sweet beauty of the fairy. Her tulle skirt consists of delicate layers and shimmers with glitter. She wears ballet slippers with lace-up ribbons and with her golden tiara, she truly looks like the queen of the fairies.
