The Nutcracker was composed and choreographed in Russia and debuted in December of 1892. The original Ballet choreography was created by Marius Petipa and Lev Ivanov. It is still almost exclusively performed by ballet companies. Some modern dance troupes have adapted choreography for the Nutcracker, but these performances are not considered official by the performance community.
