You know what?
I’m gonna say it.
I like Nureyev’s Nutcracker.
There.
All right.
I take it back.
The grand pas de deux is completely OK.
Not the most beautiful thing ever, but far from being shit.
On top of that it gave us some terribly gorgeous musical moments just the way only Nureyev was capable of and I could hardly ask for more than some envelopés and double rond de jambes…
