The One With the Christmas Carol



Last night, Emmie, Bri, Kiff, and I had the opportunity to attend the Christmas Carol at the Hanover Theater.

We haven't been in a few years, but always look forward to it. And it did not disappoint. The show is an absolute treasure. We've actually watched the show when it was run at the Stoneham Theater many years ago. Although the show moved to the Hanover in 2008, the original charm, character, and beauty of the show continues to this day.

The mixture of Victorian carols with narration and acting is the perfect blend. The show is truly heartwarming and the perfect way to ring in Christmas week. The sets are lush and lavish, opening up like small books, which is fun. Along with that, it literally snows from the ceiling.

Even neater is that they have a Mighty Wurlitzer organ which plays much of the music during the show. In honor of the end of the Skywalker Saga, they played the Star Wars theme as we left the  building. What a great touch!!!

This is a show everyone should see.
