Helping young people enjoy the magic of live theatre in a fuss-friendly performance.

BachTots: Performing Arts for Babies, Toddlers, and Young Children 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 theater 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.

Plus, the ticket price includes arts & crafts before the show, as well as a Sugar Plum dance class after!
