- The holiday tradition, The Nutcracker, is coming to the stage once again this year. About 86% of people say they saw the production before they were 18 years old. This shows in itself how much popularity it has despite showing off it's christian views. Mark Morris is directing this production in New York this year. He says one of his favorite scenes is the party scene because it is complicated; the music is intense and people moving quickly in opposing directions. This always makes for an exciting show and a consistent good time for the whole family.-Why is the Nutcracker so famous, where did the popularity come from?
What are some of the most popular performances done to date?
- I think that the Nutcracker is one of the most important plays written to date. Something that is good enough to be made into a tradition is always worth crediting. I still clearly remember seeing it as a kid and will not soon forget the magic that happened infront of me. http://www.blogtoplist.com/rss/nutcracker.html
I remember hearing about this play ever since elementary school, but yet I don't understand why it's so famous. You would think that after someone saw it once it was done with, but people go to see it again and again.
ReplyDeleteI loved this play when I was younger. I can remember seeing it multiple times. It is not surprising that 86% of people under 18 have seen the play. It is a classic that will always be popular around the holidays.
