(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?
