There's no place like the ballet, especially around the holidays. Join us as we present the 42nd season of the beloved holiday favorite, The Nutcracker Suite, to the Lincoln community at the Lied Center for Performing Arts on December 12th and 13th, 2026. 

This year marks Lincoln Midwest Ballet Company's 41nd Season! The classic story of The Nutcracker comes to life with the finest choreography, costumes, and scenery, making this production a treasured holiday tradition. We have seen thousands of yards of fabric, 41 years of curtains raising and lowering, hundreds of mice tails scurrying, soldiers marching, snow whirling, and sugar plums dancing. 

Tickets will be available starting Tuesday, November 3rd at the Lied Center box office, call 402.472.4747 or visit liedcenter.org for more information.
