The Christmas Revels – December 19 - 23, 2020 Rialto Theater, Tacoma
A mid-winter Celebration of the Winter Solstice.
Because it was such fun in 2006, in 2020 we'll head back to the time of les voyageurs - 18th century Québec - to the village of Trois-Rivières and the wilderness around it. It’s a delightful adventure filled with infectious music, dance, a flying canoe, and a dangerous bargain made with Old Beelzebub himself.
As always, a great celebration for all ages.
Saturday, December 19 @ 2pm & 7:30pm
Sunday, December 20 @ 1pm & 5:30pm (the 5:30 performance is ASL interpreted)
Tuesday, December 22 @ 7:30pm; Wednesday, December 23 @ 2pm
Tickets on sale to Revels Supporters ($75 +/ $45 seniors) on September 21. To everyone on October 5
