DPAC: Radio City Rockettes Christmas Spectacular

The Radio City Rockettes are in North Carolina at the Durham Performing Arts Center.  It is truly a Christmas Spectacular.  This was my first time seeing the Radio City Rockettes thanks to my sweet friend and colleague, Jen inviting us.  


In fact, it was a girls night for us and all four of us had not seen the Rockettes.  We were spoiled! 
And we LOVED our Orchestra Seats.  


 Jen was there with her family - it was so great to see them again!  It was their first Rockettes Show, too!  See how excited we all are! :) Her girls were thrilled as they both take Tap and Clogging so they can really relate to all those high kicks.




The Toy Soldiers were impressive and perfection. 


Jen and I had fine memories of our New York City trip to BlogHer last year together.  This tour makes you feel like you are on the New York Sightseeing tour in real life.  The costumes were gorgeous.



The Christmas Spectacular is outstanding and I agree with this description 100%:


"Fill your heart with Christmas as the world-famous Radio City Rockettes® bring their legendary eye-high kicks and a cast and crew of over 100 to Durham in America’s #1 Holiday Show, the RADIO CITY CHRISTMAS SPECTACULAR®. Adults will love the precision of the Rockettes in numbers such as Parade of the Wooden Soldiers and Christmas in New York. Children will love Multiplying Santas and the elves in Santa’s Workshop. Everyone will be inspired by the stunning reenactment of the very first Christmas in The Living Nativity. Create memories that last a lifetime at the RADIO CITY CHRISTMAS SPECTACULAR®, thrilling families for over 75 years! The Spectacular is perfect for EVERYONE!"

The Nativity Scene complete with Live Camels was touching!  This truly kicked off the Christmas Season for us.  It was wonderful to hear the Christmas Story from Luke 2.


We enjoyed great treats while on the Red Carpet.  We had the gourmet Popcorn, Starbucks, Gelato, Candied Nuts, Pretzel.  Get ready for some fun options.  And the Candy Girl came around.

Jen and I were ecstatic.  Here we are before the show - just before they pulled the red curtain.

DPAC is such a beautiful and intimate performing arts center, we adore it.  





Have you seen the Radio City Rockettes?  Are you going?  Enjoy! And let Christmas Begin!

Warmly,  Carolina Mama
