We had our last night of the country Christmas program last night, and after three nights of being on stage it feels good to stay at home and relax a bit. No more rehearsals and late nights out in the cold. I believe it was very successful because of the crowds that came from the city. They wanted to feel and go back in time to the way it used to be.
I think their appetite was filled with what they wanted to see and hear. After talking to a few of them, they said they don't get that old fashioned acting and music in the city.
They enjoyed pie of all kinds (the chocolate cream was the best). Before the program started, there was a hay wagon decorated with lights that held a superb brass quintet group that played christmas carols, such as "Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire" and "Have Yourself a Merry Merry Christmas".
There was a fire pit placed stratigically for those who wanted to hear. Hot cider and home made fudge was also on the venue.
These kinds of events really gets you in the holiday spirit.
If there is not anything going on in your neighborhood, plan a get together with friends or neighbors to go carolling and at the end of the night, plan a stop to get hot chocolate somewhere.
Whatever you do, have fun and get into the Christmas spirit!
