Christmas with the Celts
Monday, November 30, 2026 · 6:00 PM · The Franklin Theatre, Franklin
The Read
Christmas with the Celts is a touring holiday revue built on Celtic instrumentation — fiddle, bodhrán, tin whistle, harp — applied to seasonal material alongside traditional tunes and dance numbers. The form has an advantage over standard Christmas programming: the melodies are older and stranger, and the reels break up the sentimentality before it settles. The Franklin Theatre is a restored downtown room with good sound and real seats, which is the correct frame for an ensemble show like this. Six o’clock on a Monday, out early, families welcome. If you are the kind of person who resents holiday music by December 15th, catching it on November 30th in a room with actual fiddle players is the workaround.
