Into the Light

The Vanaver Caravan, in collaboration with Arm-of-the-Sea Theater, present this fanciful multicultural dance, music, and theater spectacle that follows a young girl as she looks for joy in the dark days of winter. She is helped by a kind old Bear, who guides Lucia around the world to see how people everywhere keep the light of hope alive in the winter months, through the dance and music traditions of holidays like Santa Lucia, Kwanzaa, Hanukkah, Christmas, Diwali, Yule, Advent, and Solstice. 

Into the Light wraps all the magic of Arm-of-the-Sea Theater's giant puppets into the celebratory vision of The Vanaver Caravan's world dance repertoire. The performance raises our spirits and awareness for cultural traditions, using the winter holiday season as common ground. 

For families of all ages. 

This program is supported through the generous support of the Dr. Audley M. Grossman and Paul McPharlin Puppetry Funds.
