http://SamiCone.com Behind the scenes of the final dress rehearsal for the 2012 Nashville Ballet Nutcracker Youth Cast! I'm following my daughter, a first-time youth cast member (a Garden Fairy), throughout TPAC during the entire youth cast dress rehearsal, from drop off to pick up...and everything in between.

If you have never seen what goes on behind a professional production, or have simply wondered what it's like for the kids who participate in the show, watch this 13 minute montage of their 2 hour dress rehearsal.

While it may seem like a big commitment for such a short time on stage, you'll hear first hand from the dancers themselves that they wouldn't trade it for anything!
