The Nutcracker


Every year I dance in the Nutcracker. This year is the sixteenth season of it. There are some other kids at this school that are in it to. This year my parts are a fairy, a maid, and a flower. My favorite part is being a fairy, beig a maid is'nt so bad you just have to do a lot of acting. The story of the Nutcracker is, there is a girl named Clara and on Christmas her family has a big party. As a preasant her uncle gives her a nutcracker. That night the nutcracker comes to life and he has to fight the rat king in Clara's house. He then takes her to a place where flowers come to life and faries are everywhere. Eventually though Clara had to return home. Thats the basic summary of the story theres actually a lot more to it. Every year it's not exactly the same we try to add something different every year.

Thats so awesome!!! You guys must have a lot of fun. I think its really great that you guys change it up a little bit because when you do the same thing every year it gets boring :D i just told you that too, oh well. I am going to come and watch you with my aunt and cousing. It's going to be so much fun! I'll try to catch you after the show too ;)

Hi Elli. I liked this entry. Thats fun that you get to be in the Nutcracker. I've danced in it a few times in California. That was a long time ago though. I barely even remember it. Anyways have a nice day.

Too bad I cant go this year. I really like going to see people I know in the nutcracker. This year I'm going to see A Christmas Carol so I can't see the nutcracker. I saw it last year though. And I saw alot of people I know in it.
