Thanksgiving Day is tomorrow, and it signals the season for sugarplums dancing in many little heads. If you have young ones, or you are young at heart like I am, be sure to set aside time to attend Ballet San Jose's "The Nutcracker" at the Center for the Performing Arts, opening December 11th. The music is live, provided by Symphony Silicon Valley. The Mouse King, the Tin Soldiers, the Nutcracker, and Maria all await to whisk you away into the fabulous world of fantasy and Tchaikovsky, choreographed by the Ballet's Artistic Director, Dennis Nahat.
And an extra attraction...on Dec. 13th and 23rd, following the matinees, the Ballet San Jose operating Board will hold "Nutcracker High Teas...Especially For The Little Ones" at the Sainte Claire Hotel just two blocks from the Center for the Performing Arts. If you would like to have this wonderful experience, call 408-288-2820, ext. 204 and speak with Marge Hand. There is nothing more special during the holidays than a high tea, when you are dressed in your best and enjoying the sights, sounds, and smells of the "most wonderful time of the year" !!
