The Hobby Center presents a special performance of the Radio City Christmas Spectacular starring the Rockettes in an autism spectrum-friendly environment. Part of the Hobby Center Foundation's Autism Theatre Initiative, this performance presents an ideal opportunity to reach out to a traditionally underserved community.

The autism-friendly show will provide a welcoming and supportive environment for the audience. With only slight modifications to the regular performance, the event will include educational materials for parents and children, quiet spaces and activity areas throughout the lobbies and assistance from a larger number of volunteers specifically trained in autism spectrum disorders. Families can also prepare ahead of time by reviewing the event's Social Story available on the Hobby Center website.
