Experience The Magic Of Fremont's Own Nutcracker

This Holiday Season, Yoko's Dance and Performing Arts Academy is proud to present its 15th annual production of the complete Nutcracker Ballet as part of the Smith Center Season of the Arts.

This production has become a well-known Fremont tradition in which a hundred dancers between the ages of 5 and 18 perform, a wonderful mix of talented ballerinas and adorable children. It will be a fully-staged ballet with scenery, costumes, and Tchaikovsky's incomparable music performed by the Fremont Opera Orchestra, conducted by David Sloss. This is a much anticipated holiday treat for adults and children alike.

In addition to the dancers, a number of prominent politicians from Fremont will be featured in the party scene. California Senator Bob Wieckowski will play the role of Uncle Drosselmeier. Also lending their performing talents to this production will be Fremont's Mayor Lily Mei, Fremont City Councilmember Yang Shao, Fremont City Councilmember Vinnie Bacon, and Fremont City Councilmember Rick Jones. Performances will be held on Saturday, December 14th at 2:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m., and Sunday, December 15th at 2:00 p.m. All performances will be at the Gary Soren Smith Theater at Ohlone College.
