Luna Mexicana (http://oaklandballet.org/wp/luna-mexicana/), notable for festive dancing, colorful costumes and vibrant music, is a celebration of the iconic Mexican holiday, Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead). A young woman’s dreams revive her relatives and friends who all dance back to life in the forms of teetering skeletons, skirt swishing girls, a high flying “deer dancer” and a deathly bride and groom.
Agave Uptown, Oakland’s foremost Oaxacan restaurant known for their authentic cuisine, acclaimed family-recipe mole and mescal-based libations second to none, is located at 2135 Franklin Street at 22nd Street. The telephone number is (510) 288-3668 and the web address is agaveuptown.com.
