Featuring music and dance from Russia, Ukraine, Hungary, Romania, Poland, Bulgaria, Georgia, The Czech Republic, and Slovakia:

Carol Freeman, Soloist
Brian Foley, as Fool of the World
Syzokryli Ukrainian Dance Ensemble:
Andrij Cybyk, Artistic Director (2004-2006)
Roman Lewkowicz, Lev Iwashko, Zenon Borys, Lenny Khmel & Yarko Dobryansky
and The Narodna Ensemble (Andriy Milavsky, clarinet; Relu Piculeata, violin; Sprocket Royer, bass; Betsy Blachly, percussion)
In order to win the hand of his true love, the Czar's daughter, a simple hero must travel in his flying machine across the huge expanse of Eastern Europe and accomplish near-impossible tasks. And through this journey, a glittering array of winter solstice customs, folk music and songs, festive dances, and dazzling costumes brilliantly comes to life.
Experience the warmth, splendor, and family fun of the 2006 Christmas Revels.
