American Midwest Ballet: The Nutcracker at Orpheum Theatre

The Nutcracker is a famous ballet performance featuring the fantastic music of legendary composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. The two-act ballet show was initially choreographed by Marius Petipa and Lev Ivanov. Since its original production in 1892, The Nutcracker has been covered by thousands of subsequent presentations. The Nutcracker has been known to have alternate endings depending on the production’s direction. Choreographies have also been altered, refined, or completely changed.

In American Midwest Ballet’s version of The Nutcracker, guests can expect a fresh, lively, and versatile performance by the company’s Polish ensemble of student dancers. These highly-skilled individuals went through a rigorous auditioning process from across the metro.

American Midwest Ballet was founded by Erika Overturff. The company has training students and delivers top-tier ballet performances to guests in Nebraska, Iowa, and more. The company’s mission is to provide culturally-rich programs to the city and beyond through the art of dance.
