The Magical Bracebridge Dinner
I wasn't sure what I was getting into when I signed my contract for the Bracebridge Dinner. It sounded like a silly Christmas Show, but I was excited to get to spend some time up in Yosemite. This show is so much more than a Christmas Show - it's more than just a family (which it is), it's a huge cultural tradition seeped in history and lore that is pure magic. It was a joy to be part of this fantastic cast. I learned so much about singing, opera, and the history of Yosemite! I've always loved our national parks. I grew up going to Rocky Mountain NP all the time as a kid (and still whenever I go visit the folks). It was a pure joy surrounded by incredibly talented people, gorgeous nature, and music.

We also did a holiday concert on the days we weren't doing the show!
Tons of music - classical and modern echoing through the decorated halls of the Majestic Yosemite hotel!
