I have spent all my life with dance and being a dancer.
As Milwaukee's holiday entertainment jewel, this production of The Nutcracker is a dazzling journey to a magical land where dolls, toys and snowflakes come to life under the direction of Tchaikovsky's unforgettable score. With the Milwaukee Ballet Orchestra performing alongside the Milwaukee Children's Choir, you'll be absolutely charmed by this feast for the senses.
What do you get when you combine the elegant holiday score of Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker and a DJ with pin-sharp contemporary hip hop dance? This hit show mashes up two very American icons into a stunning production that has met with rave reviews since its 2014 Washington debut. Don't miss it live this year when the tour dances its way to you!
The Martha Graham Dance Company has been a world leader in the development of contemporary dance since its founding in 1926. Expanding the vocabulary of movement and forever altering the art form by adding social, political, psychological and sexual contexts. Graham has created a language based upon the capacity of how much the body can truly express itself through movement.
