Dance with the Daffodils
Come dance with daffodils, play with puppets, and lend your voice to our chorus as we present “Lighted Candles in the Winter Trees,” December 17-19 at Colburn Park in Lebanon, NH, a free performance that is part of The Christmas Revels Festival.
This year’s show is presented entirely outdoors at Colburn Park. We’ll have a mainstage event at 4 pm and 5:30 pm each day, preceded by sideshows that include a band of roving singers, jugglers, storytellers, mummers and dancers, and concluding with a display of the fire organ.
Our mainstage show is a collaboration between Revels North and No Strings Marionette Company. This show brings to life some familiar (Dona Nobis, Lord of the Dance) and new (Bells of Norwich) music of the Revels canon through images and puppets brought to life by the No Strings Marionette Company. We’ll pass the wassail bowl, ring out the bells, dance Lord of the Dance and harness the power of the dragon to fight for the good of all.
Meet the Jack Langstaff puppet created for last year’s film version of the Christmas Revels, All Shall Be Well Again, along with a host of other characters created by the No Strings Marionette Company. The show is narrated by the Revel North chorus, providing all the vocals through song.
“Lighted Candles in the Winter Trees,” and all of the Festival’s events at Colburn Park, are free to all. Limited seating is available by reservation for donations starting at $35. Your donation helps make this celebration available to the community for free while also supporting the artists and professionals who are bringing this festival to life. Make a donation and reserve your seats today!
If you have already donated to Revels North in 2021 and would like to reserve seats, please contact Brian Cook at cook@revelsnorth.org.
Come ready to let go of the old, and turn towards the light. All are welcome.
