Winter Pageant at Redmoon

Chicago Tribune - Somewhat Recommended

"...So has Redmoon figured out how to use its new space for its "Winter Pageant?" Not yet. There is not enough we have not seen before. As a chance to come together with other families and enjoy some music, spectacle and light storytelling, it's a perfectly pleasant hour. That's it. Nobody's world was rocked. Not yet."

Chicago Reader - Highly Recommended

"...Director Will Bishop keeps it cohesive, and often thrilling, with layer upon layer of spectacle: a stilt-walking Queen of the Forest, shadow puppets, skeleton masks, and a confetti-spouting cannon. The result is a community-building feat of artistry. It's a short run, though, so buy your ticket ASAP; this is one of the best things you'll see this year. "

Stage and Cinema - Highly Recommended

"...The 2013 Winter Pageant conjures the spirit of the winter holiday of your choice, celebrating courage, community, friendship, reconciliation and light.  Visit Redmoon to experience the vivid colors, fancy machines, shadow-puppetry, and detailed masks associated with their aesthetic. A swing set and creation station are available for younger guests before the show, and the hour-long performance is timed to match their attention spans."
