Viewing Notes

How popular was Macaulay Culkin in the early 90s? He was in so many things just bc of his name. Here is the “star” and just wanders around not doing much of anything while everyone else sings or dances. It’s basically a video of what the live stage performance is, which I saw back in 1990 at Arie Crown theater in Chicago with my college gf.

The nutcracker doll is horrifying. How they ever decided on that look is beyond me. That nutcracker would scare the shit out of children.
