Fairy Tales In The Park

A land of enchantment awaits at San Diego Civic Youth Ballet's annual Fairy Tales in the Park. Performed on the historic Casa del Prado stage, your kiddos will watch in awe as the stories of Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Hansel and Gretel, The Emperor and The Nightingale come to life through dance. With the accompaniment of a professional storyteller the world of ballet and fairytales are merged together in a magical performance that any ballet lover can get behind. Better yet, all profits from this event benefit the San Diego Civic Youth Ballet's scholarship fund.
