They are eight little french clowns that come out of mother ginger's skirt. Bon-bons.
The first scene is the party scene, and then it goes on to battle scene, then snow, then the land of sweets.
In the nutcrackers I have performed in, there are usually 5 scenes. First the party scene, clara's party. Next there is the battle scene, which is when the mice haunt Clara in her dreams, and she sees her nutcracker fight the mouse king. Then there's the snow scene, and then in her dreams, Clara visits the land of sweets.
At a Christmas party, Clara is given a Nutcracker Doll. When everybody goes to sleep that night, the doll transforms into a Nutcracker Prince, and takes Clara on a magical journey to a land of sweets.
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...

To pronounce "polichinelles," you would say poh-lee-shuh-nels. The emphasis is on the second syllable "lee."
