2 tickets for a performance of Graham Lustigs The Nutcracker at Oakland's Paramount Theatre (must be redeemed by 12/13). The spirit of the holidays is brought to life with beautiful dancing, magnificent scenery and imaginative costumes. Cheer on Marie and her soldiers as she rescues the Nutcracker Prince from the evil Rat King and then soar with our dancing snowflakes to the Land of Sweets where luscious treats await. The Oakland Symphony along with the Piedmont East Bay Childrens Choir bring Tchaikovskys magnificent score to life. oaklandballet.org
