Dec. 3, 2020 Atlanta - Dominique Morel (role as Flower) poses during an interview with AJC film crew at Atlanta Ballet's Michael C. Carlos Dance Centre in Atlanta on Thursday, Dec. 3, 2020. For generations, Atlantans have celebrated the season in the company of the magical fairies, toys and battling rats of "The Nutcracker." The pandemic made a live performance of this venerable show impossible. But, said the Atlanta Ballet's artistic director Gennadi Nedvigin, "We knew that this tradition has to stay alive. We tried to find a virtual way; how we can stay here with our audience and create some joy for the season?" (Hyosub Shin / Hyosub.Shin@ajc.com)
