Photoessay: Nutcracker from the Wings

Every year, photographer Erik Tomasson captures Nutcracker
from a unique perspective.

Erik Tomasson has been San Francisco Ballet’s photographer since 2004. Through photographing multiple performances of Nutcracker each year, he has developed a deep familiarity with the production. These images, shot by Tomasson from the wings, offer a rare look behind the scenes of this holiday classic.
