2010 Christmas Revels in Washington, DC - Final Weekend!


Washington Revels presents
5 more performances of
THE CHRISTMAS REVELS


Now in its 28th season, one of the Washington area’s most popular holiday celebrations – The Christmas Revels – will play at GW’s Lisner Auditorium, 21st & H Streets, NW for five more performances, this weekend, December 10-12, 2010.

Check out some great reviews!

"
Christmas Revels’ performances defy neat, tidy descriptions. Part chorale concert, part comedic play, part dance, part storytelling of the period and culture, this holiday staple for some simply refuses to fit in with other seasonal events."

"Though I’m a Buddhist, I have learned to love and embrace the Christmas season, and part of that is due to annual performances by Christmas Revels." (Read More)

"The Revels are part play, part concert, and a tremendous value." (Read More)

Check out some great photos!

Each year Revels explores how the Winter Solstice has been celebrated in a different time or place. This year's show transports us back in time to novelist Thomas Hardy’s beloved Wessex and his fictional village of Mellstock in 19th-century England, with glorious music, rousing Morris dance, and the ever-popular audience sing-alongs!


Join a lively cast of adults and children for the show that the Washington Post says "should become part of every family's holiday festivities."
