  • If you go and watch my entry, "The Battle", it is the scene just before this one. In Battle, the Nutcracker has been given human form by Drosselmeier, but still has the head of the Nutcracker. He defeats the King of the Mice, so he is then given a human head too, and then this scene starts. Mine is a production of the Mariinsky, though.

  • That is also similar to this production. See the video "The Battle Scene" which features the same male dancer (Kevin Terry) as The Nutcracker and then he transforms into the Nutcracker Prince at the beginning of this scene.

  • Stacy Stichter is an amazing dancer...marvelous performance!!! wows me every time!!!

  • Agreed! Her performance this year was even better. I will be posting that soon.

  • it was very beautiful.. but im sorry i didnt hear pas de deux anywhere in that 10 min clip? are you sure you know what song is called pas de deux? cause it was certainly not in this

  • Yes, I am quite sure. The Snow pas de Deux starts with Clara and the Nutcracker Prince, followed by the Snow Queen and Snow King. The Grand pas de Deux is in the second act, featuring the Sugar Plum Fairy and her Cavalier. Maybe that's what you're thinking about.

  • Bravo!

  • Beautiful arms, and artistry, and to who it may concern the orchestra is usually conducted by the speed of the choreography/dancer ♥

  • What a lovely tutu... and a lovely ballerina... (at the begining *did not watch the whole video*)...

  • @christinakaiser74 Yeah, there are faster versions of that song. I'm also more used to the slow one though! But yeah, definitely an awesome performance here!

  • this is amazing!!! but it sounded like they sped the waltz of the snowflakes up alot!

  • absolutely LOVE this <3 <3 The dancers are amazing, and so is the music!!

  • I adore at 0:38 when they're perfectly in synch. Amazing production of a timeless classic!

  • wait, is this a professional company? that like tours around, has a summer intensive and such? this is really throwing me off.....
