Join the dancers and musicians of Soli Deo Gloria Ballet for The Christmas Chest, a ground-breaking story ballet that uses classical ballet, Celtic music, rousing live music performances, and the stirring poetry of Keith Patman to journey from one family’s living room to the mystery and worship surrounding Christ’s birth, life, and death.
