Around the country there's a tradition of Revels which is a season celebration of holiday traditions during Christmas. Portland Revels has been bringing a yearly celebratory performance each year set in different countries. This year the Christmas Revels brings music and dance of mid-1800s Appalachia featuring a chorus of more than 70 to reenact an Appalachian village with carols, spirituals and clogging.

We'll find out more about the Christmas Revels production and hear a live concert. Also in the cast are Portland actors Ithica Tell and Shuhe Hawkins, and local musicians including Betsy Branch, Leela Grace, Gabrielle Macrae, Kevin Sandri, Sophie Vitells and the Portland Brass Quintet. The music includes instrumental traditions of the American 1800s, including shape note carols and Shaker hymns and spirituals.
