“The Nutcracker… Marie’s Magical Dream” by Alliance Ballet Theatre
Get ready for the magic of the holiday season with Alliance Ballet Theatre’s inaugural performance of “The Nutcracker: Ballet: Marie’s Magical Dream”.
Experience the timeless holiday classic brought to life for the first time by Alliance Ballet Theatre with never before scene sets, costumes and characters✨
A Sensory-Friendly Performance of “The Nutcracker… Marie’s Magical Adventure” will be at 3:00 pm, thoughtfully designed to create an inclusive, welcoming environment for everyone, including individuals with special needs, sensory sensitivities, young children, and the elderly This special performance features:
Dimmed lighting: Stage lights will be softer, reducing the intensity for those sensitive to bright lights.
Lower volume levels: Music and sound effects will be set to a lower, comfortable volume, ensuring a more relaxing experience.
Mindful environmental adjustments: We’ve created a calm atmosphere with fewer surprises, avoiding loud noises or sudden lighting changes but still incorporating all of the same magic that would be seen in our 7:00 pm performance.
Inclusive seating: Families and individuals are free to move around as needed, creating a flexible space where everyone can enjoy the magic of the ballet in their own way.
This performance encourages all to experience the joy of The Nutcracker in a way that feels just right for them, whether you’re a longtime fan or it’s your first ballet experience.
Also joining our 3:00 pm show, Santa will be available for photos with ticket holders!
VIP Experience tickets also available for purchase.
