The Royal Ballet’s Coda was absolutely amazing and magical.

[@SevenRavens007]

Royal ballet choreography is just wonderful, beautiful, stunning!! ❤❤

[@valerialoporto7077]

Royal Ballet is wonderful!

[@katiekaa4563]

The Royal Ballet 🩰 is my favorite. It is ethereal and magical and the costumes and stage design are amazing.

[@sharoncarter4086]

Royal Ballet was most excellent, dance, and costume and grace. I loved it ❤❤❤❤

[@theyogiveg9941]

Thank you so much for this, @Danceline Ballet: a real treat, I watched it over and over! Each version had its own magic, each dancer their own magic. I loved the ambitious choreography and charming artistry of the Bolshoi, and I enjoyed the precision of the Royal Ballet, especially the way Lamb and Macrae harmonised. The NYCB version was full of excitement. On this one, I have to say my favourite was the Royal Ballet (although it would have been even more perfect had Sarah Lamb perhaps smiled more) for the iconic fish dive at the end.

[@erikfonseca2025]

Definitely Royal Ballet

[@anaconcessabingham8405]

NYC ballet very athletic and lively. Royal ballet was etherial. Bolshoi is ok.

[@egorchirkunov]

The Bolshoi's coda is the best

[@levondelite4072]

Wow, the coda is so thrilling, I just love it! Morgan Fairchild reigns supreme as the Sugar Plum Fairy, and with Joaquin they are spectacular, so I’d have to go with the NYCBALLET first, but The Royal Ballet with its sets, costumes, and choreography is a close second. Thank you! 😊

[@colinalexander1507]

The Royal Ballet was perfect.

[@loraineriddell7157]

Royal ballet was my favourite one 👌.

[@dulcedelula]

Royal ballet coreo was beautiful. Bolshoi is absolutely beuaituful as well. I do have to say the production overall of the Toronto Ballet is my favourite.

[@lilliedoubleyou3865]

I LOVE the Bolshoi (my favorite ballet company), but when it comes to the Nutcracker, it's like, if you ain't got no Sugar Plum Fairy, you disqualified!

[@AmyB913]

Royal Ballet ❤❤❤

[@EricMontreal22]

The Royal Ballet's is the closest to the notated original 1892 Ivanov choreography.

[@marcosbarzagli]

❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@karenlindley.9756]

Don’t think the footage of the Bolshoi was as clear and in frame as the other two. Prefer The Royal Ballet’s costumes and scenery etc. But I’d have to say in general I’d go with The Bolshoi. But I guess it depends who’s dancing and partnering up together than can have an influence. It’s all personal choice too….do you like the Vaganova method or the other methods out there? Either way there’s years and decades of blood, sweat and tears gone into each one….kudos to all xx

[@Metalsmithnna]

I’ve noticed the tempi for the Royal Ballet is consistently slower than the other examples. 🤔

[@alenales1384]

Ничего не скажешь, Королевский балет в этой постановке и с этими солистами - лучше даже нашего Большого)

[@ar7ar7172]

Такое впечатление, что это очень старая запись Большого. Интересно, какого года? В то время как две другие-современные

[@apriltrusty13]

NYCB forever. The others are too stuffy. 😛

[@roxysimmons]

Royal Ballet 🩰

[@candidacarino669]

They are all magnificent and greatly talented and beautiful principal dancers, for sure 'Ovcharenko and Goryacheva' . . 'MacRae and Lamb' . . 'De Luz and Fairchild' ❤❤❤❤❤ ! Tho, I'm most fond of Megan Fairchild and Joaquin De Luz and their Nutcracker- Coda interpretation ❤❤❤. Thank you to @ DanceLine Ballet for this lovely video ❤❤😊.

[@LucijaPodic-fx9it]

It would be nice to write the year of the production as a caption, or are they all from the same one?

[@marianeira9160]

Precioso

[@lhenderson3285]

BOLSHOI ..... all the way..

[@elenadiaz6312]

Bolshoi is more athletic and weightless.

[@user-ld6hp2fm3r]

Русский балет лучше всех только у русских.
