The Revels

This year, Revels will present a community member with the first-ever "Unsung Reveler" Award! This award will be given to an individual who exemplifies the Revels spirit of cooperation, positivity, collaboration, community, and connection. Over the past year, this person has performed above and beyond, with a song in their heart. They make us sing!

We are accepting nominations of Revels volunteers who have gone above and beyond, and we would love to hear from you! Fill out the form at the link below to nominate a person who has made a lasting impact on you and on Revels. Nominations are due June 5th.

This event is sponsored in part by Mass Cultural Council. It is also supported in part by a grant from the Watertown Cultural Council, a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency.

Join us to celebrate the unique American story 250 years in the making. Drawing on 19th-century songs and stories from the Great Plains, this production will include cultural touchstones of the American frontier and the diverse communities of Polish, Irish, German, Indigenous, Chinese and Black families who shaped it. Share in the multi-generational joy and harmony of Revels and the hope that comes each year on the Shortest Day.

While Revels hires several professional performers for its productions, our volunteer choruses perform in all shows and are integral to each performance. Performers of all backgrounds and experience levels are welcome to audition – the only requirement is a love for singing and an ability to perform on stage! Adult Chorus members must be 16 or older, and Children's Chorus members must be 7 - 12 years old. Chorus auditions will be held Friday, June 12 – Sunday, June 14, 2026. Sign-ups are now open - learn more at https://revels.org/auditions/
