Holly Follies
A little song, a little dance, and a whole lot of holiday cheer!
One more weekend! See the show that Lawrence Bommer calls "A musical Christmas present well worth opening seven times"
'Tis the season for CGMC's hugely popular annual holiday extravaganza, and this year Holly Follies will feature a wide variety of musical styles.
Enjoy the “unplugged” sound of CGMC’s 150 voices singing many selections never performed by CGMC:
- Aretha Franklin's "Kissing by the Mistletoe"
- Sammy Davis Jr's "Christmastime All Over the World"
- Straight No Chaser's "Who Spiked the Eggnog?"
- "A Place Called Home" (from the musical A Christmas Carol)
- plus an "African Noel," "The Christmas Samba," and many more, including two brand-new Hanukkah pieces
We're also bringing back our popular sing-alongs to get you into the holiday spirit!
