NUTCRACKER! Magical Christmas Ballet is a staging of The Nutcracker at the Orpheum Theatre in Minneapolis on 4 December 2026, 19:00. The Former Moscow Ballet is named on the bill.

The Nutcracker, Op. 71, is a two-act classical ballet from 1892 with music by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky.

It is set on Christmas Eve at the foot of a Christmas tree in a child's imagination, with a Nutcracker doll. The story adapts Alexandre Dumas's 1844 short story The Tale of a Nutcracker, which retells E. T. A. Hoffmann's 1816 story The Nutcracker and the Mouse King.
