Yuletide Celebration Review

More stories from Abigail Cook

Review on “Halloween”
November 26, 2018

The Indianapolis Symphony is showcasing its 33rd year of the IPL Yuletide Celebration. This year, Josh Kaufman and Angela Brown are the hosts of the event.

This is the first time that I was able to attend this outstanding performance and I was blown away by all of the performers, singers, and dancers in the show.

There are many great features that I loved about this event. The location was perfect. It is right downtown, so before the show, my mom and I were able to walk around and look at the lights. Also, there were lots of places to eat near the theatre, such as Weber Grill. The food was amazing, and I was stuffed. After dinner, I walked a short distance to the theatre and took my seat.

The theatre was big and spacious, and there was not a bad seat in the house. There was a beautiful Christmas tree in the center of the building, and the rest of the place was decorated with Christmas cheer.

During the show, many women and men sang wide varieties of Christmas tunes like “O Holy Night” and “Jingle Bells.” I was blown away by the singers in the show because some were from Broadway and others were professional opera singers.

The producers of the show had dancers doing acrobatics and many others were dressed up in extraordinary costumes that made them look like animals and toys.

The small, but amazing details of the show created a wonderful piece of Christmas magic that everyone in the Indianapolis area should check out. It runs until December 23rd, and tickets are on sale at the IPL Yuletide Celebration website.
