The Kuchipudi style hails from the Andhra region of southern India. Because Kuchipudi is generally performed to lyrical music sung by live musicians, this depiction of the Nutcracker story is presented with music that involves lyrical songs and dialogue set to music. The lyrics for the adaptation are written in Telugu (the language spoken in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh). The music is composed in the Carnatic music style, which is the classical music style of south India.
