## About

Nashville Children's Theatre's holiday show is Ken Ludwig's 'Twas the Night Before Christmas, a family comedy that starts from the famous poem — except that one mouse is stirring, because Santa missed his house last year. What follows are the wild adventures of a mouse, an elf and a spunky little girl who won't take no for an answer as they set out to make things right before Christmas. NCT lists it for all ages. Like every NCT production, the run includes a Neuro-Inclusive performance, an ASL-interpreted performance and a Discovery Day with a post-show Q&A; preshow lobby activities about the show's themes open an hour before each performance. The theatre is a few blocks from downtown Nashville with a free dedicated parking lot, booster seats and full wheelchair access.
