Swan Lake is the last program of the San Francisco Ballet’s season and of the 37-year tenure of retiring artistic director Helgi Tomasson.

With Tchaikovsky’s dear, familiar overture, the reassuring sameness of Wendall K Harrington’s slide show projecting 1915 San Francisco scenes onto the curtains, we were all, most decisively, back. 

In Helgi Tomasson's production, Michael Yeargan’s scenic design and the late Martin Pakledinaz’ sumptuous costumes create a scene so charming, you just want to climb inside and stay in that world all evening and beyond.

San Francisco Ballet's Nutcracker delivers world class entertainment and features such stars as Maria Kochetkova, Joan Boada, Vanessa Zahorian, Frances Chung, Jaime Garcia Castilla. A holiday classic with a fresh spin that's a must-see for adults and children alike.
