Christmas Revels 2016 travels to the beautiful province of Québec in the story of The Flying Canoe (la chasse-galerie), in which a group of lonely voyageurs working in the northern timberland go to extraordinary (one might say devilish) lengths to meet up with their faraway sweethearts on a New Year’s Eve! This classic French Canadian tale gets the full Revels treatment with colorful, high-energy songs, dance and pageantry, a talented local cast and chorus, and featured musical artists Québécois trio Genticorum and dancer Louise Gloutnez. An Upper Valley family holiday tradition since 1974!
