Published: Nov. 16, 2015

Members of the Children’s Ballet Theatre (CBT) of Michigan visited Sparrow Hospital and the Sparrow Children’s Center on Friday, Nov. 13 and performed scenes from their upcoming show The Nutcracker.

This year marks the 35th annual production of The Nutcracker by CBT. Through a unique partnership with Sparrow, each year several children who have received pediatric services at Sparrow join the annual performance of The Nutcracker as guest dancers. This program enables children with physical limitations to practice and perform dance while helping to raise funds for pediatric services at Sparrow through the Children’s Miracle Network (CMN) campaign. This year six guest dancers will take the stage to represent the Children’s Miracle Network (CMN).
