New Jersey Ballet to Present Sensory-Friendly performance of "The Nutcracker" in Rahway

(RAHWAY, NJ) -- New Jersey Ballet presents a sensory friendly performance of The Nutcracker on Sunday, December 10, 2023 at the Union County Performing Arts Center (UCPAC). The Nutcracker is a beloved annual tradition enchants youngsters and grown-ups alike with splendid dancers and a touch of holiday magic, set to Tchaikovsky's iconic score.  Showtime is 2:00pm.

The Nutcracker tells the magical story of Clara and her Nutcracker Prince as they battle toy soldiers and larger-than-life mice, and travel through a whirlwind of dancing snowflakes to the Land of Sweets. Greeted by the Sugar Plum Fairy and her Cavalier, Clara enjoys a suite of brilliant and joyful dances before opening her eyes to the familiar sights of her own home. Was it all a dream?

Tickets are $8 and available for purchase online.

This performance of The Nutcracker is brought to you by the Union County Board of County Commissioners. Sensory Friendly Theatre (SFT) is a series of live performances specially designed and adapted for children with autism and similar sensory sensitivity. Attendees can expect relaxed lighting and sound along with other adjustments and supportive services during Sensory Friendly performances. This is just one of the many Sensory Friendly performances offered at UCPAC each year.
