This week we’re diving into Nutcracker mayhem — swapping our funniest quick-change disasters, the roles we dreamed of, the roles we somehow always got stuck with, and the ones we never got to dance (still not over it). We relive costume malfunctions, and the kind of onstage mistakes that would’ve made Drosselmeyer retire early. It’s all light, nostalgic, unhinged holiday chaos… just like Nutcracker season itself.
Thanks for hanging out with us on Beyond the Pointe.
