Nutcracker Sweet Dreams Party Tickets

This is a party where you can get signatures and pictures with the cast. It takes place right after the show so you need to go upstairs immediately or else you miss it. When I asked if I should go to the party first, or purchase items at the tables downstairs, the employees could not tell me if the tables would be open after the party. So either you miss the party, or get there early before the show to purchase items. I have a few problems with the "Party". It is too chaotic, you are required to surround a cast member and jump in as people take a picture and leave. It can take 20 minutes for one picture/autograph so choose wisely because it is only an hour long event. It took over an hour (in the ONLY line they had for anything) to get a balloon hat/flower. They actually took all the party stuff down while we still waited in line for a balloon. Children were tired and all over the place waiting in line. With a little more structure and balloon people this could be doable.
