Dance Kids of Monterey County’s twenty-second annual holiday ballet has a fresh look with all new choreography and costumes! Award winning choreographer Andrea Paris-Gutierrez, Los Angeles Ballet Academy, directs the Peninsula’s pre professional company in the timeless story of Clara and her beloved Nutcracker. Two performances of the Cavalier and his Sugar Plum Fairy this year will feature guest artists Dylan Gutierrez and Jeraldine Mendoza, appearing courtesy of the The Joffrey Ballet.
With over 100 Peninsula dancers and gymnasts in the all new production, we continue to honor tradition and introduce brand new scenes to delight our devoted patrons as well as first time Nutcracker audience members.
Dance Kids Nutcracker has it all, sword fights, humor, beauty, grace and enough youngsters on stage to assure our audiences walk out of the theatre with a smile!
Choreography by Michael Smuin and guest choreographers
Baby, it’s cold outside, but it’s sizzlin’ hot around the Bay Area when Smuin Ballet kicks off the holidays with The Christmas Ballet. From classical to cool, Smuin offers two acts filled with a stunning and original array of ballet, tap and jazz. A joyous celebration of dance and a true holiday classic, this year’s program features Smuin favorites and new pieces. Let us light up your holidays!
Soweto Gospel Choir
Thursday, December 17, 2015, 8:00 pm
When it comes to vocal talent, Africa, and more particularly South Africa, has spawned the most evocative sounds on earth and still produces the very best that the world has to offer. Soweto Gospel Choir is that very best. Since its formation in 2002, Soweto Gospel Choir has brought joy into the lives of audiences all over the world. They have collaborated with artists including U2, Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder, Robert Plant, Celine Dion, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Peter Gabriel, and Josh Groban. Returning to Sunset Center for the first time in five years, the Choir will perform both traditional and contemporary songs full of earthy rhythms and rich harmonies, adding its own unique feel and interpretation to both.
Two notes. That’s all it takes to recognize the voice of Michael McDonald. Distinctive and soulful, it is one of the most yearningly emotive instruments of our times. To this add formidable songwriting and keyboard skills, and you have an artist who has been a singular musical presence for four decades. From ’70s-era Doobie Brothers classics such as “What A Fool Believes” and solo hits like “I Keep Forgettin'” through two highly-acclaimed Motown albums, genre-busting guest spots, and innovative concept shows, the five-time Grammy® Award winning McDonald is both timeless and ever-evolving.

FEATURED VACATION RENTALS
Carnoustie Manor – Pebble Beach Estates
6 Bedroom Forest Estate
Just a golf cart ride away from Pebble’s legendary courses, this vintage estate has a pool, a sauna, 6 bedrooms, five full baths and two half baths in over 7,000 square feet.
Harkening back to the grand estates of yesteryear, the Carmoustie Manor (named after Scotland’s historic links) features original art, stained glass, chandeliers, fireplaces in almost every room, and sunset views through the pines.
The layout is perfect for larger groups: at entry level, formal living and dining rooms flank each side of the grand foyer—but there’s also a library with a wet bar, a family room with a large TV, and a great room with a sitting area and a second dining table adjoining the kitchen.
The massive kitchen features a SubZero refrigerator, a gas cooktop, and double convection ovens; the secondary kitchen has ample storage plus a microwave and dishwasher. Just past the kitchen, there’s another private office/study with a fireplace, and a bath with a cedar sauna (and convenient pool access).
This gated estate on nearly one acre is just a short drive to the all the amenities of Pebble Beach—golf, spa, shopping, and restaurants. It’s just a few miles to Carmel, and five miles from all the attractions of Monterey.
PLEASE NOTE:
Pool is heated upon request (requires 48 hrs. notice)
From the honey-colored bamboo floors to the luxe linens and lovely art, the owners of this oceanview condominium have spared no expense. Sink into the overstuffed sofas and enjoy a fire after a day of golf, or gaze at the panoramic views through walls of glass—this is a home you may never want to leave.
The kitchen has custom cabinetry, granite counters, a breakfast bar, and even a Gaggenau grill with a pop-up vent hood. Other amenities include two TV/DVDs, a jacuzzi-style tub, and a covered outdoor deck: this condo has it all.
Located just off scenic 17-Mile Drive, the Ocean Pines condominiums are tucked away in the enchanted Del Monte Forest, with sweeping views of the Pacific coastline through the Monterey pines. The emerald links of America’s most legendary courses are minutes from your doorstep, along with shops, restaurants and the top-rated Spa at Pebble Beach—and with easy access to Highway One, you’re a short drive from Big Sur, the Monterey Aquarium, Cannery Row, and the storybook charms of Carmel-by-the-Sea.

We thought we’d seen the ultimate beach house…
and then we saw Sea Spray!
2000 sq. ft. | 4 Bedroom | 2 Bath | Sleeps 7
With only powdery sand dunes between you and the ocean, you’ll start relaxing the moment you step into this luxurious 2,000+ sq. ft. beachfront Mediterranean. The sounds of the surf will dissolve your cares by day and lull you to sleep at night…and wait till you see the views: on a clear day you can see the entire curve of Monterey Bay, from Moss Landing to Santa Cruz.
From the arched entry to the alabaster scones, no detail has been overlooked. The living room has a bar and comfortable seating around a gas fireplace with 55″ Smart TV above (not shown). Radiant heated, sand-colored stone floors are warm underfoot, the Mission-style furniture includes a hammered copper table that seats 8, and the custom inlaid mural in the kitchen depicting early Monterey is a spectacular piece of “art history.”
The kitchen has everything a gourmet could ask for, from a professional mixer to a coffee frother for your morning latte: granite countertops with a cream-colored travertine backsplash, burled walnut cabinetry, Viking appliances (including a four-burner gas range)—there’s even a wine cooler in the adjoining garage and whole-house water filtration.
Wall-to-wall glass (with motorized blinds) frames the ever-changing sea views in the master suite (with a King bed and a wall-mounted TV). The en suite bath features an oval Jacuzzi tub, a walk-in steam shower, two vanities topped with black glass, subway-tiled walls inlaid with iridescent stone, a separate toilet compartment, and a large closet. Three guest rooms—two with Queens and one with a twin daybed—share a second bath with a pedestal sink and a shower lined in lustrous marble.
From the sunny protected patio to the fire pit for relaxing under the stars, the living is definitely easy in this brand new beach house. Pick up fresh seafood to barbecue at Fisherman’s Wharf—or just pick up the binoculars and check out the sea life from your living room. Until it’s time for another spectacular sunset, that is.
Here’s a recipe for vacation perfection: panoramic ocean views, luxurious finishes and furnishings…
and nothing but sand dunes between you and the beach.
2400 sq. ft. | 4 Bedroom | 2 Bath | Sleeps 8
From the moment you open the door, this is a home that elicits oohs and aahs. Inside the light-filled great room, walls of glass frame ever-changing sea views, while high ceilings and cream-colored stone floors create a feeling of spaciousness and warmth. In the kitchen, lustrous granite countertops in silver, copper and jade accent the cherry cabinetry and stainless GE Monogram appliances (built-in convection oven, microwave and warming drawer, side-by-side refrigerator, and a six-burner professional gas cooktop with griddle).
The dining room seats 8, the living room has an instant gas fireplace, a large flat screen TV, and sliding doors that lead to front and side decks (barbecue, bistro table for four, two additional seating areas, and a stand heater for chilly nights).
There are four bedrooms upstairs (twin trundle, two Queens, one King). The master suite has views of the ocean and a private bath with a jetted tub and walk-in shower. Three other bedrooms share a hall bath with a shower lined in travertine, and there’s a laundry area with a front loading washer and dryer.
A central staircase leads to the double garage and a playroom stocked with toys, a TV, a dollhouse, and a trundle bed for extra sleeping. Other features include crown molding, honeycomb Duet shades, eight televisions, a double garage, and a home security system.
Let the sounds of the surf lull you to sleep at night… and wait till you see the views: on a clear day you can see the entire curve of Monterey Bay, all the way to Santa Cruz.
If you’re a golfer, it doesn’t get any better than this- this single-story California ranch is located right across the street from the Pacific Grove Municipal Golf course.
