In first act there is the Party Scene, where there is a Christmas party at Clara's house. The children and the adults do different dances like they are dancing at a party. Then there is the Battle Scene, where the mouse king and the Nutcracker have a sword fight (still graceful). After that, the Snowflake Scene, where dancers dance as if they are snow in a breeze. Thereafter, the Nutcracker and Clara (the Sugar Plum Queen) perform numerous solos and duets. THere are short variations performed by Chinese dancers, Mirlitons, Bon Bons, Arabian dancers, and a single male Russian Dancer. There also is a finale where all of the dancers perform in, but remember that there are many different versions of the Nutcracker, and this is only Chikoske's version. (Sorry about spelling!) If you're wondering how I could answer all of these, is becausse I am a professional dancer in the Nutcracker, and am dancing as a snowflake and a Chinese dancer! You're welcome...

How does The Nutcracker embrace musical nationalism?
Tchaikovsky was not on the whole a nationalist composer in the same vein as Borodin, Moussorgsky and the rest of the "mighty five." His music in general, including The Nutcracker, is less consciously based on Russian sounds. In the second act of the ballet there is a divertissement or program performed for Clara and her nutcracker prince, which includes character dances in the style of various countries, and there Tchaikovsky includes a Russian Dance and another titled "Mother Gigogne and the Tumblers", which has a Russian flavor.
