The Gift of the Magi is a special presentation recommended for children ages 7-12.
This heartwarming romantic comedy, narrated by a group of Christmas carolers, tells the story of
Della and Jim, who are desperately in love with each other but also very poor. In their attempts to
buy each other proper Christmas gifts, a strange twist of fate leads the couple to find the perfect
gifts for one another – but at an unexpected cost. Though they may not have the perfect Christmas,
the couple learns about the importance of the gift of love in this beautiful adaptation of the
story by O. Henry. Bring your cameras to take pictures with the cast after the show!

Celebrate the sounds of the season with the world-renowned Canadian Brass! Dressed in their trademark tuxes and tennis shoes, they’ll perform an eclectic repertoire ranging from Baroque to The Beatles—as well as seasonal favorites—in this special holiday concert. Comprised of five tremendous brass musicians — each a virtuoso in his own right—the legendary Canadian Brass has an international reputation as one of the most popular brass ensembles today, and has truly earned the distinction as “the world’s most famous brass group."
