The Nutcracker like you’ve never read it before…
You want to know what I wish?
I wish my father remembered who I am when he looks at me.
I wish I didn’t have to marry Drosselmeyer to save my family’s fortune.
I wish I could get a choreographer to quit judging me on the size of my tutu and let me dance.
The silliest one of all – I wish someone would come to whisk me away from my dumpster fire of a life.
But wishes aren’t worth any more than the broken nutcracker I got on Christmas Eve. Until the old grandfather clock strikes twelve on Christmas morning when my handsome nutcracker comes to life and says ~ “I’m the captain of the Nutcracker Guard and it’s our sworn duty to protect you, Princess.”
