About this event
Shane Homes YMCA at Rocky Ridge. Co-presented by Bach Tots: Performing Arts for Babies, Toddlers, and Young ChildrenNutcracker returns to the YMCA with their beloved performance of Nutcracker (in a Nutshell) this December! Set to Tchaikovsky’s iconic music and narrated by a friendly elf, this condensed 30-minute rendition of the beloved tale is an ideal opportunity to introduce young children to live theatre without the hassles of long drives, parking troubles, or pricey tickets. Plus, this performance is fuss-friendly, meaning children can dance, sing (or cry) without worry of disrupting the performance.
