Perfect Performer Posted December 21, 2002 Share Posted December 21, 2002 What exactly is the story of the Nutty Nutcracker? I Know a lot of people who like it, But I don't know the story of it. Link to comment
Alexandra Posted December 21, 2002 Share Posted December 21, 2002 I think theyr'e all different, PP. It started, I think, because some companies (including New York City Ballet) would do something different and "fun" for New Year's Eve -- a subtle change in costume or choreography. And some people would go New Year's Eve just to see what they'd do. Then some companies would twist the story, or have local celebrities come in and do a role, and add other funny bits. Reading about them, a lot of them don't sound really funny, to me, just coarse -- but, then, I'm a purist Link to comment
