Tickets to our Winter Solstice event are now available!
We hope you'll join us for this beloved annual event at the historic Loring-Greenough House in Jamaica Plain, MA as we journey from darkness into the light on the wings of Myth Music and Song.
About the
Performance: Celebrate
the time of the darkest nights with haunting legends of light, entertaining
tales and traditional music and song to celebrate the season. Spoken word and
theatre artist Diane Edgecomb brings to life the ancient myths that reveal the
deep meaning behind winter holiday traditions. Featured stories include the Scandinavian
“Legend of the Mistletoe,” the Greek myth “The Coming of the Days of Peace.” as
well as humorous English Wassail traditions. Celtic harper Margot Chamberlain
and multi-instrumentalist Tom Megan accompany the tales with instrumental
melodies and bring traditional and original songs evoking the warmth of the
season, rounding out the event. Traditional refreshments, including a Wassail
Bowle, will be served at intermission in the Loring-Greenough House’s elegant
eighteenth century dining room.
