El Cascanueces

Es Nochebuena en casa de los Stahlbaum y Marie y Fritz esperan ansiosos el regalo de su padrino Drosselmeier, quien todas las Navidades les sorprende con un obsequio hecho por ?l mismo. Este a?o les ha regalado un impresionante castillo, pero los hermanos pierden pronto el inter?s en ?l. Marie se fija, en cambio, en un cascanueces vestido de soldado que reposa a los pies del ?rbol. It's Christmas Eve at the Stahlbaums' house and Marie and Fritz are eagerly awaiting the gift from their godfather Drosselmeier, who surprises them every Christmas with a gift he made himself. This year he gave them an impressive castle, but the brothers soon lost interest in it. Marie notices, however, a nutcracker dressed as a soldier resting at the foot of the tree.
