EDIT: I AM SORRY. I SAW THIS A COUPLE DAYS AGO AND HAD A NIGHTMARE ABOUT THE GIANT PURPLE FLOWER HEADPIECE AND THE RAT KING MASK. I AM JUST GRATEFUL THEY DID NOT PUT SCARY MASKS ON THE NUTCRACKER DANCERS

omg, the giant purple flowers are my favorite part. I was huge into tap dancing when I was younger, but I can understand how it wouldn't appeal to people. My poor mother and father must have suffered so much when they brought me to see Bring in da Noise, Bring in da Funk.

Also, I think the rat look more like an armadillo face and can see how it's creepy.

That's pretty cool. A lot of adults are so divorced from the concept of play and the arts, I'd watch an entire production of this.

Is this what fox news had their undies in a twist over? I guess it's not surprising. I knew the dancers must be black.

They’re also complaining about how the troupe supports left wing causes on their website.

I always find it amusing when right-wing nuts get sticks up their asses over anti-racism or pro-equality/equity/inclusion initiatives. It's like... okay, so you're for racism and exclusion/inequality/iniquity? And you think you're morally righteous? Sure, Jan.

I saw a clip of Steven Miller complaining that they didn't pay taxes or something.🤣

Like, doesn't he have a hairline to spray onto his shiny head? Go focus on that.

Bold choice to have part of the tap dancing take place in a carpeted room.

I had to go back and rewatch for this. Thankfully whatever foley was done on this DID take the carpeting into account.

It's been estimated that 25,000 Palestinians are dead. Fuck this woman and her genocidal maniac of a husband.
