revels season

i know i should post all sorts of stories about backstage revels interactions, but i shall not. backstage is offstage; and what is onstage is public.
this year's show is set in bavaria, so we FINALLY get german music in the revels! we will sing beethoven's ninth symphony as an audience sing-along. this should be the height of fun for the show. strangely i had never sung the Ode to Joy before...

the recurring theme is saint nikolaus, and how he is not quite the same as santa claus. as always the revels will look fabulous, sound great and invite everybody into the village for seasonal songs and a heartfelt blessing.



december 11-20 at the scottish rite center in their glorious hemidemispherical theater... right on the lake in oakland.
