What Nutcracker Veterans are saying...

  • As a veteran party parent, my advice is simple: just keep moving! Create your own sub-plots, have imaginary conversations, and make exaggerated facial expressions. It might feel silly, but that's the fun. Your job is to convince the audience you're having the best time ever at this magical party!"

    — Parent

  • Be animated! Gentlemen kiss the ladies hands. Ladies air-kiss each other. Boys and girls bow/curtsy to the elders. When dancers perform, watch them!

    — adult dancer

  • "Bring the party to life! Use the set as your 'conversation piece' - gesture around the room, admire decorations, and act amazed by the dancing dolls. Just remember: face the audience and don't touch the props. It's all about creating that realistic party atmosphere!"
