Sugar Plum Fairy
November 25, 2002 - January 12, 2003
Leo K. Theater
For every ballerina who dreamed of dancing Clara in The Nutcracker there are many who, due to a “cruel, Darwinian pecking order, instead end up fourth from the left on the bottom row of a pyramid of rats, elbow to elbow with the boys from judo." This is the story of a girl who is unaware that her dance style is more Ed Grimley than Gelsey Kirkland. A hilarious coming-of-age tale for any of us who’ve ever reached for the gold and ended up with a rock. By Sandra Tsing Loh, novelist, NPR commentator, and author/performer of Aliens in America
