Smuin’s fiercely festive The Christmas Ballet is a confection for everyone on your list! New treats, fun and frolic include your favorite choreography by Michael Smuin. Don't miss this signature showcase of classical and contemporary dances set to songs of the season and two world premieres and other delights from brilliant dancemakers.

Smuin’s spectacular San Francisco holiday tradition returns with fizz. (Cue the cork pop, please!) Join us for our fiercely festive one-night-only performance in support of Project Open Hand. Special guest star Lady Camden, the alter ego of Rex Wheeler former Smuin Artist, hosts the evening and steps into the red-hot heels of the iconic role of “Santa Baby” that Artistic Director, Celia Fushille created.

Be entertained by the cheekily charming Patsy Cline tribute, Dear Miss Cline, and breathtaking contemporary ballet, Been Through Diamonds set to Mozart’s String Quintet in C Minor -- both by remarkable dancemaker, Amy Seiwert, plus Company premiere, You Are Here by acclaimed choreographer, Gina Patterson.

Be moved by accessible, nonstop movement created by nationally known creators and two up-and-coming women choreographers who are also Smuin Artists. Val Caniparoli’s Confessions, Renaissance by Amy Seiwert, and world premieres by Tessa Barbour and Brennan Wall in Showcase by Smuin deliver a program of love letters to audiences.
