While I was excited to spend a night on the town, going to see the Nutcracker would not have been my first choice. I saw it last year for the first time as an adult and it's just not the same when you are all grown up. But I wasn't about to tell my husband! A night out IS a night out and I want to encourage him to do this in the future-- wink!
Well the joke was on me. He took me to see the Nutcracker but it wasn't your classic ballet. Nope. It was a "Burlesque Nutcracker" in which each scene the actors stripped down to pasties and thongs/banana hamocks and it was all set to swing-style music. The Nutcracker on Crack. It was definately entertaining. I think I saw enough skin to last me the rest of my life.
There were aerialistas
And a risque sugar plum ferry
And sex dancing 
And men in tutus and pasties....

This sounds like the only Nutcracker my husband would buy tickets to. Sounds like a fun night out!
That is freakin' awesome. We volunteer for our local ballet company, and sadly, they've never done anything like this!
