Episode 50: The Rosin Box: The Nutcracker
Manage episode 315313410 series 2861103
Hosts Claire Kretzschmar and Aarón Sanz are back with a very special holiday edition of The Rosin Box. In an intimate tour of the bustling backstage spaces before, during, and after a performance of George Balanchine’s The Nutcracker®, Claire and Aarón reveal what it takes to make this magical production come to life. From the necessary comforts of a dressing room “moon pod,” to the challenges of make-up and updo changes for dancers performing multiple roles, to the meditations and incantations that (quietly) echo in the wings, the joy of revisiting this holiday tradition and sharing it with audiences new and old is shared by all. (51:29)
Edited by Emilie Silvestri
Music: "Je ne t’aime plus" by Pink Martini Courtesy of Pink Martini & Heinz Records “The Nutcracker” (1892) by Peter Ilyitch Tschaikovsky
