Student Cast Information

This family-friendly ballet was given new life in December 2023! Michael Pink’s recreation of The Nutcracker features even more student cast roles, playful characters, and stunning costumes, sets, and light designs. This is a unique opportunity for Milwaukee Ballet School & Academy students to perform alongside our professional company of dancers, gain additional rehearsal and performance experience, and play a key role in this magical holiday favorite.
