Tim: WE SAW THE COSTUMES AND
FIGURED WE HAD TO SEE THE
STUDIO, RIGHT?
AND WE FOUND DANCERS, WHICH IS
EXTRA HELPFUL.
ELIJAH AND LAUREN, HI, GUYS.
TELL ME HOW YOU GOT FROM LITTLE
BALLERINAS AND DANCERS TO WHERE
YOU ARE NOW.
WHAT IS THAT PROCESS FOR YOU
GUYS?
Guest: GO AHEAD.
Guest: I'VE BEEN DANCING
HERE 12 YEARS.
IT'S BEEN A LONG PROCESS.
I STARTED IN THAT LITTLE STUDIO
OVER THERE JUST BASIC BALLET
STUFF.
AND I'VE GOTTEN ALL THE WAY TO
THE LEAD ROLES.
Tim: WHAT ABOUT YOU, LAUREN?
Guest: I'VE BEEN DANCING
HERE NINE, TEN YEARS.
AND A LOT OF PRACTICES AND
REHEARSALS GOT ME HERE.
Tim: I CAN'T IMAGINE.
HAVE YOU DONE THE NUTCRACKER
BEFORE?
AND WHAT EXCITES YOU ABOUT THIS
YEAR'S PERFORMANCE?
Guest: YES, I'VE DONE IT I
DON'T KNOW HOW MANY YEARS NOW.
I THINK THE MOST EXCITING THING
IS THE AUDIENCE.
BECAUSE THEY SUPPORT US AND
EVERYTHING.
IT'S COOL.
Guest: FOR ME, IT'S JUST
BEING IN THIS BALLET FAMILY.
IT'S JUST A GREAT EXPERIENCE TO
HAVE EVERY YEAR.
IT'S SOMETHING I LOOK FORWARD
TO.
Tim: WELL, THE NUTCRACKER IS
FAIRLY WELL KNOWN AS FAR AS
BALLETS GO.
YOU GUYS ARE GOING TO PERFORM
SOMETHING.
WHAT PIECE ARE YOU GOING TO DO
TODAY?
Guest: THE.
[FOREIGN LANGUAGE]
Tim: I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT
THAT WAS, BUT WE'RE GOING SEE
IT.
HERE, TAKE IT AWAY, GUYS.
♪
Tim: WELL, GUYS, THAT WAS
AMAZING! I TRIED TO DO THE
POINTY TOE THING BUT NEARLY
BROKE MY FOOT.
SO WELL DONE, THANK YOU FOR
SHARING THAT WITH US.
