Ballet Chesapeake's Nutcracker Sweets

Ballet Chesapeake will perform an abridged sensory-friendly version of their complete professional staging of The Nutcracker ballet with intricate costumes and sets, along with Tchaikovsky’s timeless score. This version is child-friendly and includes live narration of the Nutcracker story to accompany dancers.

This special program aims to introduce the very young to the wonder and enchantment of a ballet performance while teaching them basic theater etiquette and table manners.

Following the performance, the children are led to a decorated tea party area for a formal tea party and snacks. The dancers, still in costume, serve the tea while the Nutcracker interacts with the children.

Each child will have the opportunity to take a photo with their favorite character and will leave with memories that last a lifetime!
