We went to see Nutcracker today
Dec. 16th, 2014 12:36 amThe American Ballet Theater production, in its last year here. Next year it'll be in Costa Mesa, so anybody in the area really ought to see it. It's wonderful!
Eva was a massive crankypants during the first half of the show, to the point where I considered pitching her over the balcony, but I decided that'd be even more disruptive. (No, seriously, I considered leaving. Jenn could stay with Ana and her last-minute guest. This guest was why Eva was so cranky. My mother had had to bow out, and Eva was annoyed Ana was sitting and talking with her friend instead of her.)
She settled down during the second half, after we let her go to the cafe unattended and then switched seats so she could get a better view. THANK goodness!
