Voctave is a viral a cappella group that you have to see to believe. Thankfully, there’s an opporunity for that.

Their newest album, The Spirit of The Season is perfect to get you in the holiday spirit.

I’ve always loved the hand bells. If only I could play them…

While I wait for my hand bell skills, I’ll leave it up to the professionals. The Heritage Ringers will be providing the Huntsville community with a free concert. You can expect to hear some of your Christmas favorites.

4. The Nutcracker

You didn’t think I would just tease you with The Nutcracker like that, did you?

Thanks to the Huntsville Ballet, you’ll be able The Nutcracker yourself.

5. The Eight: Reindeer Monologues

Up until this point, you’ve been provided with great, family-friendly shows. This one is just for the adults, aged 18 and older.

Christmas time is busy and stressfulā€”not only or you, but for reindeer, too. This is the opportunity for Santa’s reindeer to blow off some holiday steam and diss Santa a time or two.

Theater Huntsville will give you some good laughs.
