The Story

The story of the night will portray a tale of two Christmases with each depicting the hope and joys of the holiday season. The first is a tale of Yuletide from long long ago. A Time of kings, queens, princes, princesses, knights, and jesters. The Chamber Singers will take us back to the Isle of England over two-thousand years and thus will begin the festive show. With pageantry & costuming befitting of a royal occasion, lords and ladies will assemble to tell the stories of holiday hope through carols, feasting, and Jesters comedic presentation. After the feast, dessert will be served with a slate of traditional pop and jazz holiday carols reminiscent of good old holiday memories. The comedy, soulful singing, and holiday hope will be amped up as you polish off your meal to ensure every participant leaves with hop for the holidays. This is a time for the entire family as your children will get to take pictures and dance with the King, Queen, Prince, Princess, or a noble lord/lady of your choice.
