The Nutcracker Spectacular’s Act 1 welcomes us into the wintry wonderland of the snowflakes! With icy sparkles on their tutus and glimmering tiaras on their heads, the snowflakes sweep us away into the fantasy land of a child’s holiday dream.
Although the dancers seem to be leaping and floating above the floor, I happen to know from experience that this is not so effortless; those perfected arabesques and straight lines begin in the studio. Around this post are photos of this season’s snowflakes in action, where the real work begins.
Dance is not just pretty costumes and glitter (though we do enjoy that part!). It takes hard work – but these young ladies are more than up for the challenge. It is obvious this will be one Nutcracker Spectacular to remember!
