Fathom Events and the Autism Society of America are delighted to bring a first-of-its-kind sensory friendly cinema event featuring the Bolshoi Ballet’s timeless holiday classic, The Nutcracker, to select cinemas on Monday. December 19.
In this special cinema presentation theatergoers are encouraged to be themselves. The lights will be turned up, and the sound turned down, so you can get up, dance, walk, shout or sing!
On Christmas Eve, Marie’s wooden nutcracker doll transforms into a beautiful prince who takes her on a magical journey. Before they leave, they must confront the Mouse King whose army is threatening Marie…
Christmas would not be complete without the enchanting tale of young Marie and her Nutcracker prince! Danced by the Bolshoi’s principals, E.T.A. Hoffmann’s fairytale staged by Russian ballet master Yuri Grigorovich will transport children and adults alike to a world of magic and wonder for the holiday season.
The screening begins at 6pm local time and runs for approximately 2 hours and 15 minutes. Participating theaters and online tickets can be found at the Fathom website here. If you cannot purchase tickets online, they can be purchased at a participating cinema box office.
