Smuin Ballet’s fiercely festive 2022 edition of The Christmas Ballet returns. It is our gift to the Bay Area showcasing Smuin’s exquisite signature style in a dazzling program of ballet, contemporary, character, Broadway jazz, and tap in two acts.
Ring in the holidays with Smuin’s The Christmas Ballet. Every performance is brimming with sublime classical ballet set to carols and showstopping contemporary works danced to pop music favorites. With choreography by Michael Smuin and inventive premieres by up-and-coming dancemakers, Smuin unwraps surprises and new treats each year.
Our yuletide spectacular was declared “sheer joy . . . the finest toast to the season” by the San Francisco Chronicle. Bay Area performances of our irrepressible holiday classic open in Walnut Creek on November 19.
And mark your calendars for Smuin’s The Christmas Ballet LGBTQ+ Night performance in San Francisco on December 20 to benefit Project Open Hand. The show features new delights and a twist on our annual holiday tradition that adds culture, community, charity, and miles of cheer to Smuin’s The Christmas Ballet.
Smuin’s fiercely festive tradition tours the Bay Area again this year, spreading holiday cheer to every member of the family. Make plans today to join us!
