SF Ballet: The Magical Memories Nutcracker Video Contest November 5, 2009
Even if you’re not interested in entering, check out this really funny video with your favorite SF Ballet stars. My favorite is Ruben Martin Cintas at around 1:14, where he strikes a dashing pose and dashes his dashing self off the screen.
To commemorate the 65th anniversary of the Nutcracker ballet being performed in America, the San Francisco Ballet is holding a video contest for viewers to be able to win fabulous prizes by sharing your Nutcracker memories in a fun and creative way.
