December 1926: John Henry Manners, the 9th Duke of Rutland, is visiting Haddon Hall with his wife and children. Abandoned for over two centuries and now dilapidated, his ancestral home is slated for demolition. Stranded there overnight, the Duke and his family are unexpected witnesses to a “spirited” holiday celebration involving the many generations who have made this their home. These ghostly participants do their best to convince the Duke that Haddon Hall must be saved.

Santa Barbara Revels celebrates a diverse range of cultural traditions by blending music, dance and storytelling in our staged celebrations of the Winter Solstice and other seasons.

We present a number of public events throughout the year. From concerts like Equinox to more informal community pub-sings, there is always an upcoming Revels happening.

The highlight of our season is The Christmas Revels, a joyful theatrical celebration of the winter solstice that travels the world each year showcasing cultural traditions including music, dance, and folktales.
