We were taught to sew our own pointe shoes, fix our own hair, and do our own makeup because we are responsible for achieving our own dreams. We were taught that our behavior is an example for a younger generation which has helped me now in my life as a parent.

And Merde to the Cast, Crew, and Creative Team for the upcoming Nutcracker!
