Sydney Mesher, who was born without a left hand, dreamed of becoming a Rockette since she watched the group dance in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade on TV as a 6-year-old. Now the 22-year-old is the first visibly disabled dancer to be a Radio City Rockette, according to the dance troupe. Mesher didn't make the cut in her first audition in 2018.
The professionally trained dancer performs just like the rest of the cast, making only a few adjustments in the"Christmas Spectacular." In the"Rag Dolls" dance, she still holds the oversized toy block like her fellow cast members just from a different angle, she explained in the video. In the"Hear Comes Santa Claus" number, she holds one bell in her right hand instead of one in each,"but in the end it still creates the same picture," she said.
