Nutcracker may be over, but this week Rebecca and Michael sit down to catch up and discuss Michael&#8217;s Nutcracker gigs. Rebecca asks Michael about coming out of retirement for his return to the Nutcracker this past December. We chat about how he prepared, what the rehearsal process was like, and we get nostalgic over other Nutcracker memories from years past.
