About the Performance
A guaranteed Christmas spirit is promised as the Romeo & Julia Choir breathes new life into traditional Christmas music with their theatrical performances. The elves, Saint Lucia, and the Three Wise Men take the stage, but they don’t always do things as planned.
The concert features music from the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, as well as modern Christmas carols. The songs convey powerful messages and remind us why Christmas is our most important holiday. The Romeo & Julia Choir envelops the audience in a soft blanket of music, love, laughter, and warmth.
The Romeo & Julia Choir’s Christmas concert has been performed to sold-out houses at Dramaten since 2005.
“The choir treats us to both familiar Christmas tunes and songs that come from unexpected places. The costumes—ranging from elves to pilgrims—add a lot to the experience. Christmas can’t be accused of being minimalist, but the Romeo and Juliet Choir finds elegance in Christmas traditions without losing the festive spirit. It’s like drinking mulled wine from a champagne glass.”
Gefle Dagblad
“It’s one of the best Christmas concerts I’ve ever seen, with a quality so much higher than that of the many tacky productions that tour the country’s concert halls in December. The Christmas spirit sets in right away.”
