How do you make the Nutcracker Ballet more appealing to the youth? By introducing some gnarly skateboarding demos, of course.
Skateboarding legend Tony Hawk made a showing at the Golden State Ballet‘s rendition of the Nutcracker, doing a short demo alongside skateboarder Katelyn West. The appearances were short, but they were certainly a welcome sight for the members of the audience.
The Nutcracker ran at the Golden State Ballet between December 12th-21st, so those who missed it will have to wait until next year. Tony Hawk’s appearance wasn’t entirely a surprise, with him performing in the 7:30pm show on Saturday, December 20th.
