Other years we have gone to the Revels in Cambridge, MA on December 27th, but this year, The Revels as a live event in Sanders Theater was cancelled due to the pandemic. But that was not the end of the matter. They produced a video which celebrated the 50th anniversary of The Revels by drawing on archival films of past years, woven into a contemporary story filmed at Sanders with no audience, and a "virtual audience" of heads in the seats at Sanders Theater. singing their hearts out. We set up the computer, with external speakers, at the Dummerston Church and watched it there on the computer screen - using the church WiFi - which was more satisfactory than watching at home on the iPhone screen. It was well done and quite a bit of fun - not up to the live event but fun nonetheless. I didn't think to take a screen shot till near the end but here is one:
Right now, Ellen is at Hannaford's doing some shopping and I'm at the church doing this!
