Ruth Ann, I’ll add two cents and contribute my voice to the chorus. Brava! I applaud you for introducing your family including grandsons to some real culture and a live experience, (not tethered to devices!). The legendary Jack Langstaff started the grassrootsRevels that’s become a local, community-based, decades-long tradition with Christmas Revels (now called MidWinter Revels). In case it’s not abundantly clear at this point, it is multicultural, definitely multigenerational - with children both in the cast and in the audience, and multi fun! And as others have pointed out, the audience sing-alongs, and the spiraling line dance “Lord of the Dance“, is something to experience!
It’s truly unique among the plethora of musical/cultural events at this time of year. Anyone who is musically inclined, can audition to be part of the chorus, and I strongly encourage it. I was a member of the Revels Repertory Theater - smaller, touring part of the organization. We did five shows and performed at schools community centers and churches. I loved it. Enjoy!
