A NUTCRACKER NIGHTMARE (Spoof)
A ballerina's worst nightmare is not having her proper routines, rituals, and most importantly pointe shoes set before an important rehearsal or worse, performance. As we head into the joyous holidays, this particular retired ballerina realizes her company needs her last minute to perform on stage turning into a Nutcracker Nightmare! The ballet sketch comedy is a spoof on the Nutcracker.
​
Creative direction by Kimberly M. Olivier including improvisational acting and dance. Performed at Rae Studios' Holiday Showcase 2021 in San Francisco, CA.
