Allegro is presenting it's 27th Annual Holiday showcases at Auburn Performing Arts Center this coming December. It has been a tradition for our academy and for our community as a way to enjoy the festivities of the holidays! For the first time ever, this local dance and performing arts academy is thrilled to announce that one of these performances will be designated for anyone in the community that would benefit from a sensory friendly performance.

The sensory friendly show will take place on Saturday December 17th at 2:00PM at Auburn Performing Arts Center. Tickets are complimentary but prior registration is needed to reserve your tickets ahead of time. Registration link is below.

Many adults and children who are on the autism spectrum, are neurodiverse, have developmental and/or cognitive disabilities are not able to enjoy live performances. The need for these types of performances is in great demand as many families cannot experience together the benefit of live performing arts. We want to help to provide this to our community and to allow everyone to celebrate the holidays in a fun and festive way.

This year's holiday showcase called 'The Great Holiday Baking Championship.' It's a script written especially for Allegro that plays off all the popular reality baking shows that we all know and love. Our Allegro Players drama group are the main characters that take us through the story while the dance performances support the story through song and movement!

The sensory friendly showcase modifications will include: Lower sound level in the audience, elimination of starling or loud sounds, lights in the audience will be raised slightly, the audience is a 'shush-free' zone and there will be a calming area in the lobby for those that need a break from the show as well. Allegro is proud to be offering this type of performance for the first time in our 27 years and we plan to make it a consistent part of our future holiday performances for years to come.
