Meri Meri x New York City Ballet Character Crackers

We've collaborated with New York City Ballet to create the most enchanting holiday range inspired by their renowned production of George Balanchine's The Nutcracker®.

These special party crackers will bring theatrical elegance to your celebrations. The set of six features beloved characters from the ballet, each beautifully embellished with intricate details and shiny gold foil accents. Designed to look wonderful placed along your party table, they will delight guests before the crackers are even pulled. Inside each is a paper party hat, a joke, and a wooden brooch, perfect as a keepsake of this festive time.

George Balanchine's The Nutcracker® is one of the most complex theatrically staged ballets in the company's repertory. The popularity of the ballet is immense and provides an unforgettable spark to everyone's festive season.

Children of all ages from New York City and around the world fill the David H. Koch Theater to be captivated by Tschaikovsky's music, Balanchine's choreography, Karinska's sumptuous costumes, and Rouben Ter-Arutunian's magical scenery.
