Cuba's National Ballet, directed by Prima Ballerina Assoluta Alicia Alonso, keeps presenting the Nutcracker with great success at the Valencia main theatre, as part of the  Spanish tour to conclude soon.

The piece, with choreography by Alicia is based on the free version by Alexandre Dumas, with designs by Guido Fiorato, according to the National Information Agency (AIN).

Specialized critics and the audience have welcomed with enthusiasm the Cuban artists' performances and Alicia's presence.

Another emotive moment was when Alicia and the dancers visited the exhibition Revealing Looks of the Cuban Revolution, at the Valencia Modern Art Institute.

The display includes 65 photos of the Cuban Photographic Library's collection, with works by such important photographers as Korda, Raul Corrales, Roberto Salas, and Liborio Noval, who captured transcendental moments of the Revolution.

On January 1, the National Ballet will celebrate the new anniversary of the Cuban Revolution at Havana's Grand Theatre, with a varied program.
