Ellie Grohoske Modern 4-14-13 The Pennsylvania Ballet Nutcracker This winter when I went home for break I saw the Pennsylvania Ballet perform their annual Nutcracker. It was my 5th time seeing this company performance from the audience, however I have been in over 50 performances total with this company performing various roles in The Nutcracker. I’m not sure why so many dancers hate this ballet, because it has always been my favorite ballet since I was little. It could be because it was the first ballet I ever saw before as a 3 year old, and that was what got me truly interested in dance.

Honestly I really can't sum my life up only on one page but I’ll do my best. I love to laugh and have a good time, I'm usually smiling and if I’m not, most likely something’s wrong. I laugh over the littlest and stupidest things.

Three nights a week my mom, sisters and I would attend rehearsals for our spring or winter production. I loved practicing for each production whether I was the lead or a member of the chorus. I knew all of my hard work would pay off when I stepped onto the stage at the Imperial Theatre and my stomach would fill with that familiar excitement.

Many of her dances came from past history and history that was surrounding her. Many outliers got their ideas and thoughts on the outside history that was surrounding them as well.

I have greedily trapped their attention and will only dare let it free when I have had my fill. Before theatre, I was caged; trapped and not knowing what to do to escape the iron clutches. A theatre filled with children, has been my escape to discovering my true potential of my limitless future. Last summer, I was asked to choreograph for Masquers Theatre Summer Camps at my high school that I just graduated from. Every morning for two months I walk into the familiar main hallway; my footsteps echo against the once crowded linoleum floor.
