The Nutcracker And The Mouse King (Foil Packaging)

This delightful tale, most famously adapted into a ballet by the great composer Tchaikovsky, has been a perennial family Christmas favorite. Based on E.T.A. Hoffman's beloved children's story, THE NUTCRACKER AND THE MOUSE KING follows a pampered prince who lives in an exquisite castle and gets everything his heart desires. His magician uncle Drosslemeier wants to teach the spoiled boy a lesson. While playing with two magic nuts, the prince carelessly declares that life would be so much better if everyone were a toy. Suddenly, he and his entourage turn into toys. Now, in their absence, the evil Mouseking is trying to usurp the throne. Uncle Drosslemeier enlists the help of Clara to help reverse the spell and save the kingdom from tyranny. Famed actors and comics including Leslie Nielsen (THE NAKED GUN movies), Eric Idle (of MONTY PYTHON), and Fred Willard, add their recognizable voices to the animated fun.
