Nutcracker "Sweet" 〰️

Oakland Fairyland’s beloved puppeteers team up with the SFCO for a delightful version of Tchaikovsky’s holiday classic. Designed for young audiences, this production features the acrobatic antics of The Puppet Company’s miniature cast accompanied by the SFCO performing highlights from this beloved ballet.

Sensory Friendly Family Concert

〰️

Sensory Friendly Family Concert 〰️

Our Sensory Friendly Family Concert is the SFCO’s first program designed for our neurodivergent community. What does that mean? ALL children are welcome, and we welcome all types of engagement with the music. We’ll refrain from sudden loud sounds, our string quartet will be an appropriate volume, we'll have a basket of fidget toys, and the seating will be a bit farther apart. We will introduce the instruments of the string quartet and play a variety of music ranging from classical to children's favorites. There will be fun, hands-on activities for children 0-12 who wish to participate.
