Central West Ballet's The Nutcracker & Low Sensory/Special Needs Nutcracker

Holidays wouldn't be complete without Central West Ballet's Nutcracker! Featuring beautiful sets, backdrops, and danced with heartwarming energy by CWB dancers, this magical tradition is a perfect holiday card for all students to cherish! Always new, always magical — follow Clara's adventure to the Land of the Sugar Plum Fairy!

The Low Sensory/Special Needs Nutcracker is uniquely different from a traditional Nutcracker production: house lights are up 25%, volume is down 25% with no special effects used (no fog, snow or cannon shot sounds). An ASL Interpreter signs the welcome, a brief reading of The Nutcracker story and, time allowing, the Q&A afterwards. CWB's Board of Directors serve as wheelchair attendants. The performance is 60 minutes and patrons are free to emote, fidget, walk around, leave and re-enter the theater as needed all in a non-judgmental environment. For Low Sensory/Special Needs tickets, complete the Student Matinee Reservation Form.

This performance is presented by Central West Ballet, a Resident Company of the Gallo Center for the Arts, learn more at https://www.centralwestballet.org/.
