Annual Rotary Club of Oakland #3 Holiday Ballet Tradition

Experience the magic of The Nutcracker as the Oakland Symphony and Piedmont East Bay Children’s Choir perform Tchaikovsky’s timeless score. Graham Lustig’s stunning choreography brings Marie’s adventure with the Nutcracker Prince, the battle with the Rat King, and the enchanting journey to the Land of Sweets to life. Beautiful dancing, dazzling costumes, and the splendor of the Paramount make this a perfect holiday outing.

After the Show
We’ll continue the celebration with an early dinner at Agave Uptown Oakland (2135 Franklin Street), just a short walk (3 minutes) from the theater. Agave offers both classic and modern Oaxacan fare, a regional Mexican cuisine celebrated for its rich moles, chocolate, cheese, and mezcal. Enjoy dishes like house mole, tlayudas (massive tostadas), burritos, and carnitas. Don’t miss their agave spirits and micheladas. Good food, warm company, and plenty of holiday cheer.

For ticket information and dinner plans, please reach out to Mack at (510) 541-9303 or .

Join us for an afternoon of music, magic, and community. Let’s make this a holiday memory worth keeping.
