My thesis main theme is the adaptation of The Nutcracker and the Mouseking, written by E.T.A. Hoffmann, and the The Nutcracker, composed by Tchaikovsky and Marius Petipa, to the film The Nutcracker and the four Realms, of Ashleight Powell and Tom McCarthy. My research will answer the following questions: How the tale influences the movie and the ballet? What are the differences and likeness between the characters in the three works?
