Sugar Plum Fairy
The Sugar Plum Fairy is a funny character. Despite being one of the primary figures in The Nutcracker, we don’t get to know much about her. What’s her deal? What’s her connection to sugar plums? What does she want? None of these questions are answered, really. So, for this episode, I’m going to give our favorite Christmas candy queen the spotlight and investigate her backstory. This week’s story is called “The Land of Sweets,” and it was written by Niall Cooper. Find a transcript of this episode here.
