(The entire show is brought to audiences by Madison Square Garden Entertainment Corp and Cirque.)
Dancer Samuel Moore is one of the many artistic masters gracing the stage this season. Following Cirque’s 2019 version of “‘Twas the Night Before…”, this is the second time Samuel Moore is performing in this magical holiday circus.
Let’s meet him now!
BTSCelebs: Who is Samuel Moore professionally?
Samuel Moore: I am a hard-working and optimistic individual who knows how to be fun but also very productive in the workplace. I’m always looking on the bright side, and I’m always trying to be a solution to someone’s problem. I believe that I am a person who is very easy to work with.

[Interview] Dancer Aiden Moss: The Nutcracker Prince Is Leadership
On December 4th, A&A Ballet presents another glamorous performance of “The Art Deco Nutcracker“. Alexei Kremnev‘s eighth full-length ballet plans to make Tchaikovsky’s classic music shine in front of a modern audience. This version of “The Nutcracker”, which is set in America during the 1920s, stars dancer Aiden Moss as The Nutcracker Prince.
Recently, BTSCelebs was offered the wonderful opportunity to interview this young artist, who is an aspiring studio owner himself. In our exclusive interview, Aiden introduces himself, mentions his dance beginnings, discusses his role in the holiday special and more.
Meet dancer Aiden Moss now.
BTSCelebs: Who is Aiden Moss professionally?
[Aiden Moss] is an aspiring dancer, who is currently training under the A&A faculty here in Chicago. He will someday use all the knowledge he’s accumulating to be a studio owner one day. Also, he is a store director for Chick-fil-A who primarily runs the back of the house. He loves the parts of the job where he can hustle and show others how to make their job easier.
What piqued your interest in dance?
I began my dancing at the age of 5 when I took my older sisters ballet class one day just for fun. And fell in love with it. I was about 14 when the classical ballet took over my life and I started looking at it as something that I never wanted to stop doing. I love the strict standards that the Vaganova method of ballet brings to the studio and your life.

[Interview] 5 Questions With Jonathan Bingham
Tomorrow, Chicago Philharmonic Orchestra premieres its 32nd Season with “Simply Serenades”. Composer in Residence Jonathan Bingham is poised to make the world premiere of his orchestral serenade “Tautology”, and BTSCelebs was given the golden opportunity to interview him.
Currently, the Howard University and New York University grad is a Donna Milanovich Composer in Residence at CPO. His resume includes completed residencies with Boulder Symphony, collaborations alongside artists from multiple genres and international premieres of his work.
Learn more about this gifted man of music now.
Who is Jonathan Bingham professionally?
I’m still trying to figure this out! I can say, though, that I’ve dedicated much of my time over the past decade trying to develop skills for different areas in music. Composition for the concert hall has a different approach than writing for media, popular culture, etc. It’s been my responsibility, as well as the responsibility of my fellow composers, to branch out and service different mediums.
What piqued your interest in performing arts?
Composing music was the first activity that fully transfixed me. It’s easy enough to be fun yet challenging enough to prevent boredom. To add, any individual getting to know the performing arts becomes connected to a rich, worldly history and lineage. I remain thankful for it.

[Guest Blogger] Lynn Austin: 5 Tips for Staying Grounded at Christmas
It’s so easy to get carried away at Christmastime. While we’re dazzled by the glitz and magic of the season, the pressure builds to create a perfect Christmas holiday for our family, with a perfect tree, perfect gifts that are perfectly wrapped, a perfectly decorated house, and perfect get-togethers with family and friends. Our stress levels rise as we become buried in must-do lists, and we end up frazzled and exhausted by the New Year. In all of the bustle, it’s easy to forget that the real meaning of Christmas is the birth of a Savior, God’s perfect gift to us. Here are my five tips for staying grounded this year—and every year.

[Interview] Todd Shoemaker: [Dead Man Running] Is God’s Story. All Credit And Praise Goes To Him.

BTSCelebs: Who is Todd Shoemaker?
Todd Shoemaker: I am a husband, friend, servant and prayer warrior.
How did you become a Christian?
I became a Christian at the age of 10. Even though my decision was real, it was mostly made because my big brother came to know Jesus. It was not until I arrived at Palm Beach Atlantic University at the age of 19, that my relationship with Jesus became truly real. I was blessed with some wonderful Christian roommates. Jesus helped my roommates guide me into a rededication of my relationship.
What compelled you to tell your story in “Dead Man Running”?

Several friends encouraged me to share my story with a larger audience. I also want to encourage others dealing with some life issues to stay positive during the journey.
Which family or friend do you feel was shocked the most by your miracle and will to live?
I would say my mom and godson were truly shocked by my miracle.
Why did you choose to release the film free of charge?
This is God’s story. All credit and praise goes to Him. Also, I never want anyone not to see this film because of financial issues.
What message do you want people of all religions to take away from your movie?
To be stronger in their faith. To walk away encouraged. To leave with more hope. To keep fighting the battle.
What additional projects should we expect from you for rest of the year into 2022?
Hopefully going to update our book The Blessed Overcomer in 2022. Based on the Covid situation, I would love to speak at churches, other ministries and universities.
