The Nutcracker at Sandywoods Farm

The Island Moving Company, Newport's classically trained contemporary ballet company, will perform a very special, one-day-only, "mini-Nutcracker" at the Sandywoods Center for the Arts (43 Muse Way, Tiverton) on Sunday, December 4th. Doors open at 11 am. Light refreshments will be served, with the performance to follow. After the event, children will have an opportunity to meet with the dancers and have their photos taken.

$15.00 for adults, $10.00 for children 4-12 years old. Children 3 years of age and younger - accompanied by a paying adult - will be admitted free of charge. They may either sit on an adult's lap or sit on pillows at the front of the hall. Don't forget to bring your pillows!

You can prepay via PayPal at http://www.sandywoodsfarm.org/events/nutcracker.html.

Tickets will also be on sale at the door starting at 10:30 am. Seating is limited. Any questions? Call (401) 241-7349 or e-mail info@sandywoodsfarm.org.

This affordable performance of The Nutcracker would not be possible without the generous assistance of our event sponsor BankNewport. Many thanks to Island Moving Company, to its administrative and artistic staff and dancers, and to BankNewport for collaborating with Sandywoods Farm, Inc. to bring this timeless holiday classic to Sandywoods this season.
