"... this revival of Ninette de Valois’s 1954 production, danced for the first time in nearly 14 years and set in Osbert Lancaster’s colourful world of embroidered aprons, red-heeled boots and the occasional tutu, has an energy all of its own." (The Independent ★★★★)

"A simple story, a ravishing score, story-book … and a feast of dancing" (The Financial Times ★★★★★)

"A charming departure from Christmas ballet clichés... You’ll leave with a smile on your face." (Time Out ★★★★)

"Crisp dance and sharp comedy make their mark..." (The Evening Standard ★★★★)

"There can be no better antidote to the winter blues than the latest release on the Opus Arte label … This recording – available on both DVD and Blu-ray disc – has a marvellous cast that includes Marianela Nuñez as Swanilda, one of her finest roles. " (The Dancing Times)
