They met me backstage in the most holly, jolly, sparkly room this side of the north pole. This is one of our rooms where we would get dressed in between numbers. Some of the changes are 90 seconds. We have eight costume changes. We wouldnt be able to do it without our amazing costume crew. The backstage crew here during the show is just as important as what the audience sees on stage. Reporter forget the elves, the costume crew is the hardest working team this time of the year. Every one of the 80 rockettes on stage have custom made outfits. Add iing up to 350 loads of laundry a week, 16 hours a week, and 20 hours on the weekends, but thank goodness someone is doing the laundry. This is a workout. How heavy is this . Not sure how many pounds it is, but it is our santa suit. It is cardio there is the fat insert to have a jolly feel. We have the santa wigs, beard, gloves, boots. I have to imagine it gets a little toasty under there. Its a little warm on stage. Absolutely. But if anyone can beat the heat, its the rockettes. They are in pique physical shape despite holiday treats. Its important to eat well, stretch, warm up, cool down in between shows, so that we take care of our bodies, and we have a wonderful Athletic Training Department because it is a very athletic dance. It looks very easy from the audience no, it doesnt. What are you talking about . Reporter they do a magical job making the dances look easy, but this wooden soldier has been in the show since but no dance is more famous than that signature kick line. So after some preshow warmups and approved stretching, i skip the letter to santa thing and asked the rockettes to make my Christmas Wish come true. Joining a kick line. Oh. I feel good about that.

Overall, the critics are behind fences, but one writes, by themselves, the actors make the movie worth seeing, though in the end, it feels too much like a school assignment, and another says, washington and davis performances invite a us into a place thats painful and hard to shake.
