The first week of Nutcracker performances are completed, but there are still plenty of opportunities to see the Company perform this holiday favorite! Over the last few weeks, San Francisco Ballet has been out in the community to spread the word about the production. Below are a few highlights from recent Nutcracker activities.
- Costumed San Francisco Ballet School students visited the Daly City and Sloat Blvd Lucky Supermarket locations much to the delight of week-night shoppers. Lucky Supermarkets is the official sponsor of Nutcracker Family Performances and donates juice, cookies, and gifts for these six performances.
