About this adventure
Pacific Northwest Ballet presents the Friday, December 11, 2:00 p.m. performance of George Balanchine's The Nutcracker at McCaw Hall as a relaxed performance. PNB describes relaxed performances as designed to provide a welcoming and supportive environment for people with sensory processing challenges to enjoy the shared experience of live ballet with their friends and family. This performance has lighting and sound modifications and entry/exit privileges, and PNB notes that patrons may move, vocalize and behave in ways that are sometimes not welcome in formal performance settings. The show is PNB's holiday production with the PNB Orchestra and its sets and costumes; the running time is 2 hours and 3 minutes, including a 25-minute intermission.
