Burnt Thicket is adapting its annual Christmas Presence mashup of stories, poetry and songs about the nativity, partnering with On the Boards Staging Company to host a unique holiday cabaret. 

It's sure to be a fun filled, entertaining evening for all. Bring your friends, bring your family!

We're hosting this holiday-themed cabaret, part of the Get Up! On The Boards series of cabaret events. Drawing together performers around this season of anticipation and hope, helping us lean into one another as winter descends on the prairies.

Settle in for a cozy evening of live entertainment and stick around after the show to enjoy some hot apple cider and treats. Join us as we tend to our shared longings for wholeness, light, and healing among all peoples  â€“ yearnings at the heart of Advent and Winter Solstice traditions.
