Though the 1944 San Francisco performance was the first time the ballet was presented in full in the U.S., the music wasn't new to Americans. The ballet debuted in 1892

First performed by the Imperial Russian Ballet at the Maryinski Theatre, St. Petersburg, in December, 1892, The Nutcracker ballet was a collaborative effort. Master choreographer Maruis Petipa (1819-1910), a Frenchman, set the staging; Lev Ivanov (1834-1901) was the actual choreographer; and composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (1840-1893) wrote the score to follow Petipa's staging. The Ballet's story originates from a rather complex short story written in 1816 by E.T.A. Hoffman (1776-1822) called Der Nussknacker und Mausekonig (The Nutcracker and the Mouse King) and from a then popular French version of Hoffman's story written in 1845 by Alexander Dumas, père (1802-1870) titled Casse Noisette (The Nutcracker). Although not performed in this country until the 1940s, it has become a holiday favorite. The Ballet is set in late 18th century Nuremberg, Germany at the home of the wealthy Dr. and Frau Stahlbaum. The Ballet is a nostalgic story of a family Christmas celebration and a little girl's fanciful dream of adventure, a Prince, and a far away Kingdom of Sweets!
Tchaikovsky could have flown in a hot-air balloon, but not a zeppelin. His ballet The Nutcracker premiered in 1892, and Tchaikovsky died less than a year later. The first flight of a zeppelin was in 1900.
