It would be MBT 19th annual Nutcracker, and it is very sadness that our talented dancers cannot be on stage this weekends due to the unprecedented challenge of Covid-19.In compliance with our Governor’s mandate to limit large gatherings, to prevent further spread of the coronavirus, Minnesota Ballet Theatre and School has postponed its The Nutcracker revenue generating event, and suspended operations of the Minnesota Ballet School and its arts education and community engagement programming.  The result is a crippling in lost revenue for the institution and like most non-profit organizations, we do not have the contingency funds for use in times of civil emergencies, such as this pandemic.Now more than ever, we need your support. Please consider contributing, to help us during this critical time. Every contribution is significant in helping us to sustain operations, and deeply appreciated by everyone at MBS.With your support, we will once again prevail during this precarious time.

"Peter and the Wolf' is the tale of a brave little boy, who together with his friend the bird, traps a frightening wolf who is threatening the safety of the village," according to a news release.

"Musical instruments in the orchestral accompaniment represent each character in the ballet; narration throughout the performance helps the audience follow the story. The narrative assists even the youngest audience members in appreciating the delightful dances of Peter, Bird, Cat, Duck, Wolf and even Grandfather."
