The Nutcracker is an animated short originally featured in episode #13 of Mickey Mouse Works. It was later featured in the direct-to-video movie, Mickey's Magical Christmas: Snowed in at the House of Mouse and the House of Mouse episode "Pete's Christmas Caper". As the title suggests, it is an adaptation of The Nutcracker, but it also finds its roots in the stage show Mickey's Nutcracker, which was performed at Disneyland's Videopolis theater in 1991.
