Ronn Guidi, Founding Artistic Director of the Oakland Ballet, has revived the Oakland Ballet Company.

An exciting Oct. 20 inaugural performance at the Paramount Theatre featured Michael Morgan conducting members of the Oakland East Bay Symphony in Marc Wilde’s Bolero, Vaslav Nijinsky’s The Afternoon of a Faun and Guidi’s Trois Gymnopedies.

December 21-24 will celebrate the 35th Anniversary of Guidi’s Nutcracker at the Paramount Theatre, also with Michael Morgan conducting members of the Oakland East Bay Symphony.

The Ronn Guidi Foundation for the Performing Arts (RGFPA) has launched a fundraising campaign to raise $350,000 to help cover production costs. RGFPA has raised more than $80,000 to date.
