NB: This competition is now closed. Congratulations to our lucky winner Louise S.

Dear Readers,

Here’s a fabulous Christmas offer for a very limited time only!

**Win a Pair of Tickets to the Nutcracker Ballet at London Coliseum**

English National Ballet is offering a lucky reader the chance to win a pair of tickets to see Christmas favourite The Nutcracker at the London Coliseum. The tickets can be used for any performance* between Dec 26 and 30 2011.

Journey back in time with English National Ballet’s The Nutcracker to a frost-covered, gas lit London and join Clara, her Nutcracker doll and the magician Drosselmeyer in this traditional festive tale for all the family. In a world of Edwardian elegance sparkling with Swarovski crystal, The Nutcracker brings to life the eternally popular Tchaikovsky score featuring the Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy and the Waltz of the Flowers.

To win the tickets please answer the question:

What is the name of the famous fairy in The Nutcracker?

A) The Tooth Fairy
B) The Sugar Plum Fairy
C) Tinkerbell

Please send your answers to editor@babesabouttown.com. Hurry, competition closing date is Thursday Dec 22 at midnight!
