This heartwarming performance tells the fantastical story of a young girl’s journey around the world to discover how different cultures celebrate light in the darkest time of the year. Join us for this enchanting, festive dance, with live music, and puppetry as a faithful Bear guides young Lucia around the world. Filled with color, pageantry, and the heartfelt celebration of multi-cultural traditions for everyone in the family, Into the Light honors the traditions of Chanukah, Christmas, Kwanzaa, Diwali, (India) Sankta Lucia (Sweden), Winter Solstice, and Yule. Members of The Company will join our Youth Company & Caravan Kids for the Feature Performances.
