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...

Clara got the nutcracker from her Uncle Drosilmire.
the nutcracker has one The Nutcracker. the nutcracker

The Nutcracker was not based on a book. The Nutcracker was written by Peter Tchaikovsky.
Some famous ballets are the Nutcracker, Swan Lake, and Don Quixote.
* swan lake * the nutcracker * sleeping beauty * don quixote * coppelia * giselle ...etc
The Nutcracker Suite is the Overture and a set of dances from the ballet of the same name.
The Nutcracker, Op.71: No. 12b Character Dances: Coffee (Arabian Dance)
I think Swan Lake, The Nutcracker adn Giselle would be classical, because comtempary dances are more flowing and free range.
I believe it's Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Suite, Op. 71A, Danses Caracteristiques, Dances Des Mirlitons (Hope I spelled it OK!)

In The story of the Nutcracker. There is only one nutcracker. Clara receives the nutcracker as a present from her aunt. Her Uncle Drocilmiar (sorry is this is misspelled) brings the nutcracker to life. In a ballet performance, if there is two dancers who portray the nutcracker character s up to the director or instructor.
