Puget Sound Revels

Puget Sound Revels More About Us
Throughout the year we offer pub sings, house concerts and salons, outdoor celebrations and more. Our anchor production is The Christmas Revels.

A spirited celebration for all ages, it involves 60 to 90 people on-stage, the heart of which is a large chorus of adults and children (auditioned from the community) to which we add professional actors, storytellers, singers, dancers and instrumentalists. The volunteers’ enthusiasm energizes performances as their abilities are stretched to their maximum potential by the opportunity to work with s

easoned performers. Each show is professionally lit and costumed and supported by professional instrumentalists. Every Year a New Theme! Audiences expect a similar experience from year to year that revolves around the mid-winter themes of light and dark. Our challenge is to give the audience that experience while setting the production each year in a different time and place (i.e. Italian, Nordic, Celtic, American, Victorian, Medieval, etc). Revels’ success is that, while it refers to ancient tradition, it has become a living tradition for the community. Some elements in the productions remain constant from year to year, whatever the theme. These have become the Revels rituals and include: the Abbots Bromley Horn Dance; the Shortest Day poem by Susan Cooper; the Lord of the Dance line dance to end the first act and the Sussex Mummers Carol to end the show. History Of Puget Sound Revels
The Puget Sound Revels incorporated in 1992 and produced its first show, a Spring Revels, at the Scottish Rite Temple in Seattle in May 1993 followed by a Sea Revels at the same location in May 1994. The first Christmas Revels was in December 1994 at the Rialto Theater in Tacoma. There has been a Christmas Revels every year at the Rialto since 1994.

How important do you think it is for the City of Tacoma to continue supporting funding for arts, culture, heritage, and science nonprofit organizations to produce cultural programming? We want to hear from you.

This past year brought important milestones and renewed commitments to Tacoma's cultural sector, including the reauthorization of Tacoma Creates, the 25th anniversary of the 1% for Art Program, and the 24th anniversary of Tacoma Arts Month.

We still have work to do!

The Arts & Cultural Vitality Division is currently updating our strategic plan to inform the next 10 years and would like your input.

Please take a short, anonymous survey to help us understand how well our programs and services are meeting community needs, how we can deepen equity and access, how we can communicate more effectively, what to prioritize moving forward, and how people experience Tacoma's cultural landscape.

Thank you for taking a few minutes to share your perspective with us.
