    Good pictures and glad you enjoyed the ballet.

    I believe that Les Sylphides has been danced in a kilt so maybe Nutcracker will at some stage!

    It's been a while since I've seen The Nutcracker, but couldn't someone interpret the toy soldiers as being a highland regiment.?

    You do look like a million bucks (especially in this economy! ) Thanks for sharing.

    It's Lamont Modern actually. I wear that particular one for my wife and her family.

    Possibly - certainly a kilted Sugar Plum Fairy might give the wrong impression!

    At one of the showings of the Nutcracker that I have attended (in Chicago or Pittsburgh, I can't recall), the character of the grandfather was kilted. Needless to say I was very excited. Of course, the dancers played it up a bit with a mock kilt check.
