If you have not attended the festival, it is a joyful, sensory overload of music, singing, dancing, colorful costumes, excitement, and tradition that celebrates the arrival of the Three Kings in Bethlehem. Click here for the video

It is a great opportunity to create a unique holiday memory. For many families, the excitement, color, fun and friendships of the Boar’s Head Festival make it their favorite event of the holiday season.

The story is told through the lens of a celebration in Medieval times: guests in magnificent Elizabethan costumes are invited by the Lord Mayor of London for a grand festival recalling the birth of Jesus and the arrival of the Three Kings, led by the Epiphany star.

We need about 100 volunteers for non-speaking cast roles that range from children over five, to their parents and grandparents! Costume fitting and photos will be taken before and after the service, 8:30 to 1:00, on Measurement Sunday (one day only), September 29 in the AHCC Choir Room.

We need another 100 or so people behind the scenes to help with sets, publicity, makeup, props, staging and so many important roles. Again, if you are interested in helping, please register before September 29th to let us know.

To save time, register online before the costume fittings for both cast and crew. Click here to register online
