nutcracker 2010

sadie, abe and kai were all in the nutcracker this year. they performed at NAU on the 16th, 17th and two shows on the 18th. it was a modern version, not very traditional, and so fun! sadie was a party teen (she looked beautiful) and a street jazz performer, which was a hip hop, suppose to look tough, dance. it was awesome! abe was fritz and did such a great job pestering the party girls and breaking the nutcracker, and kai was absolutely darling! they made him fritz's younger brother, erich, since abe and he look so much alike. he danced with clara in the opening scene and had a few parts where he was the center of attention. this has consumed a lot of our time this last month, but so worth it. it was such a positive experience. we will miss it next year.
