Thank you to our performers, musicians, creative team, partners, volunteers, and audiences who joined us and helped make this special holiday tradition so memorable in 2025.

Charles Weidman’s Christmas Oratorio, set to the exquisite music of Bach, was presented as a breathtaking modern dance classic, elevated with live music and choral accompaniment for a truly immersive and unforgettable experience. Under the direction of Noah Palmer, an orchestra, choir, and opera soloists brought this masterpiece to life.

Guests had the option to take part in a delightful holiday tea before the performance, provided by Chocolate Is Self Care. Attendees also enjoyed decorating the festive dance tree, snapping photos with the beautifully costumed cast, and celebrating the season in an interactive and joyful way.

This enchanting evening of dance, music, and tradition was a highlight of the holiday season.
