Candy Cane: Spirit of the Holidays

3:00 pm, Singletary Center for the Arts
Concert Partner: THE BEACH FAMILY
Community Partner: COLUMBIA GAS OF KENTUCKY
Mischievous holiday spirits from the Magic Circle Mime Co. come to Lexington this holiday season with their own ideas of what a holiday concert should be. As two of the spirits squabble, LexPhil is caught in the middle. To the rescue comes the spirit of "Music" leading the audience in an unusual holiday sing-a-long that breaks the grinch-like "curse of noise" and returns a holiday spirit to the Singletary Center for the Arts.
