TDF Stages

Everything is beautiful at the accessible ballet! On Sunday, November 27, TDF presented our inaugural Autism Friendly Performance of George Balanchine's The Nutcracker® at Lincoln Center. New York City Ballet has been dancing this annual holiday favorite since 1954, but this is the first time a performance was tailored specifically for families with members on the spectrum or with sensory sensitivities. As you can see from the video below, a sweet and magical experience was had by all.
