Here’s a fun throwback: Watch this video of a young Wendy Whelan taking on the role of Dewdrop in Waltz of the Flowers. Fun fact: this performance happened the same year she performed Coffee in the film version of George Balanchine’s The Nutcracker®. This clip comes courtesy of our friends at New York Public Library for the Performing Arts' Dance Division. See the holiday classic through JAN 5: nycballet.com/nutcracker | New York City Ballet
