Proceeds from this performance are used to sponsor the charitable works of Presidio Performing Arts Foundation, including fund afterschool dance outreach to underserved children and student scholarships for talented children.
A wonderful alternative to the Nutcracker, WINTER WONDERLAND, a narrated international holiday production, opens a joyful world with feelings of amazement, festivity and wonder, delighting audiences of all ages with a celebration of holiday favorites from the great ballets and holidays across cultures. Costumes for this matinee are created especially for the school by the artists and designers of the Mariinsky Theatre (home of the Kirov Ballet). A festive Holiday Party follows the performance.
Presidio Dance Theatre Junior Company has been named as "San Francisco's Dance Ambassadors to the world" by two Mayors. They performed in the famed White Nights Festival in Russia last summer and have recently been selected as the ONLY dance group to represent the United States at the largest international children's festival in Turkey, April 2010.
In June, 2010, The School of Presidio Dance Theatre will re-locate to a new state of the art facility on the Presidio's Main Post with double its present capacity of studio and production space and community programs. For more information call 415 561-3958 or visit www.PresidioDance.org
