foryourinfo Posted December 26, 2002 Share Posted December 26, 2002 Has anyone seen any Nutcrackers? I say Miranda's and although she was not yet back to her usual self I was so happy to see her again and could see her confidence grow as she kept dancing. Her maturity and experience made it so clear to me that there is such a lack of that right now in the company. I don't like it when the Sugar Plumb Fairy looks the same age as the angels she is leading. I wan't to see a woman taking control and casting a wonderful spell over the land of sweets.

Alexandra Posted December 27, 2002 Share Posted December 27, 2002 Thanks for that! There were some reviews of early performances posted on the Recent Performances forum, but we haven't heard from anyone in a few days, and I hope some others will join in. Link to comment
Michael Posted December 27, 2002 Share Posted December 27, 2002 Weese's return is the single biggest good thing that can happen to this company right now, I am so glad to hear of it. Link to comment
Dale Posted December 30, 2002 Share Posted December 30, 2002 Thank you Foryourinfo. You review was the only one I've seen of Weese's return to action. I miss Weese a lot and think the company misses her too. She's doing another Dewdrop this week. Regarding the Sugar Plum, I agree that the best interpreters were Ballerinas with a loving, gracious quality. Link to comment
MJ Posted February 8, 2003 Share Posted February 8, 2003 Does NYCB release statisitics for Nutz? I'm curious to see if attendance dropped over previous years. I'm sure it was better than last year, Xmas 01 was the most somber I've ever known. MJ Link to comment
Calliope Posted February 8, 2003 Share Posted February 8, 2003 NYCB releases their annual report on it's website. There are no hard numbers for Nutcracker, but you get the general audience numbers. Link to comment
