About Carnival of the Animals
“Carnival of the Animals” is a musical suite of movements centered on animals created by French composer Camille Saint-Saens. Nashville Ballet’s NB2 artists will perform in costume as playful characters, each representing a different animal from the swan to the mischievous kangaroo.
Family Day Activities
In addition, Family Day with the ballet features activities for all to enjoy throughout the center. Kids can hear Sleeping Beauty storytimes, enjoy a musical petting zoo, a circus obstacle course, improv jam, movement classes, a photo booth and crafts. For children requiring it, an area has been designated as a sensory-friendly quiet zone.
