My wife and I have seen the Milwaukee Ballet’s production of Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker Suite a number of times over the years and it never fails to exceed our expectations. If you’ve never attended a performance by the Milwaukee Ballet, this is an outstanding choice for your first experience and it makes a great Christmas gift and could become a family tradition in no time. Evan a “lowbrow” like me can appreciate this art form.
My favorite scene is the Waltz of the Snowflakes. This video of the scene is not the Milwaukee Ballet, but I want to share it with you anyway. In my opinion the Milwaukee Ballet’s production and performance of the Waltz of the Snowflakes is superior to this one.
