RNZB Performance: The Ugly Duckling (relaxed performance)
Join us for the Royal New Zealand Ballet’s enchanting new production of The Ugly Duckling: a timeless tale of feathers, fitting in, and finding your flock.
Where | Ki hea
Soundings Theatre, Level 2, Te Papa
This playful performance re-tells Hans Christian Anderson’s timeless fairytale with a distinctly New Zealand twist.
About relaxed performances:
An opportunity for neurodiverse audiences to experience the world of ballet in a low-sensory environment. At this performance, there is a more casual approach to front of house etiquette and a more relaxed attitude to noise (voluntary and involuntary) in the auditorium. The aim is to minimise patrons’ anxiety and to ensure they have a safe and enjoyable theatre visit.
At the end of the performance there is an opportunity to talk to the dancers and see the costumes close up.
