Act 2

Rose Waltz

After traveling through the forest, Marie and the Prince arrive in a magical land ruled by the Sugar Plum Queen. Marie is delighted to see Uncle Drosselmeyer there and runs to greet him. Drosselmeyer introduces them to the Queen and her enchanting kingdom. The Queen, charmed by the Prince’s love to Marie, gifts her a bridal dress for their wedding.

As the Queen and Drosselmeyer bless their union, a mouse suddenly scurries onto the scene and provokes a fight with the Prince. The Sugar Plum Queen quickly intervenes, settling the matter once and for all by offering the mouse a delicious piece of cheese. Overjoyed with his gift, the mouse forgets all about his lost tail.

With peace restored, the festivities begin. Colorful dances representing different parts of the world delight the royal couple and their guests. Mother Ginger, a beloved figure in the kingdom, summons her best cooks and elves to prepare delicious ginger cupcakes for the occasion. The Waltz of the Flowers, led by Sugar Plum and Drosselmeyer, transforms the palace into a fragrant wonderland, framing the royal couple’s grand wedding dance.

As the celebration reaches its peak, the guests swirl around the pair in a final joyful tribute before fading into the night.

The next morning, Marie awakens in her own house, filled with wonder and confusion. “Was it real, or was it all a dream…?” she asks herself. When Drosselmeyer enters the room, she pleads with him for answers. To her astonishment, he presents her with the Prince from her dream, now standing before her with the royal crown in his hands.

Dreams, like love, have the power to cross worlds—proving that what we dare to believe, we can make real.
