Revels seeks a diverse and talented volunteer chorus of adults and children (ages 7-12) to join our family for 18 performances of The Christmas Revels at Harvard University’s Sanders Theatre in Cambridge, December 13-29, 2019.
While Revels uses a number of professional performers in its productions, its volunteer chorus of adults and children are at its core. There is no “standing” Revels production chorus; We audition each cast anew for every show.
Exploring a new cultural tradition each year, our 49th annual Christmas Revels finds us back home in America. Set in the 1930’s the production will feature a variety of songs from the bluegrass music of Appalachia to the traveling songs of California, from the bony harmonies of New England to the easy melodies of the South.
Auditions are by appointment only.
