Milwaukee Ballet - The Nutcracker

The Milwaukee Ballet presents their annual production of The Nutcracker. This classic holiday ballet features Tchaikovsky's enduring score performed live, accompanying Clara's journey through a world of toy soldiers and sugar plum fairies. It's a traditional interpretation that many families return to year after year. This performance takes place on Friday, December 11, 2026, at Uihlein Hall at the Marcus Center in Milwaukee. The grand setting of Uihlein Hall provides a suitable backdrop for a full-scale ballet. It's a show that generally appeals to a wide audience, including those new to ballet and seasoned patrons.
