Midwinter Revels

Event Series: Midwinter Revels

December 14 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Children singing in costume.

Midwinter Revels is a cherished holiday tradition for over 70,000 people throughout the country. Every December, the Cambridge Revels community gathers in Harvard University’s historic Sanders Theatre to celebrate the season through the traditional songs, dances and stories of cultures from around the world. This year’s production will be performed live at Sanders Theatre December 12–28 and will be followed by a virtual encore streaming option!

Revels’ joyous blend of music, storytelling, song and dance, brings to life the radiant story of “Matchless,” by Gregory Maguire, author of “Wicked.” Woven together with festive Scandinavian song and dance performed by virtuoso musicians, actors and an intergenerational chorus, the story tells the tale of a young boy finding warmth and light in the darkest days.
