2021-12-01

The Horlick Vocal Music Department at the Academies of Racine-Horlick is proud to announce the triumphant return of it’s Annual Renaissance Feast, celebrating it’s 44th year.

Travel back to 1564 and to the court of Queen Elizabeth I.   Filled with song, dance, revelry and humour, enjoy the music of the time period along with some new pieces that ring in the season.

The Renaissance feast has been a staple of the Racine Community since 1976. The Madrigal Dinner is a Musical Medieval Feast. It is an American form of dinner theater often performed during the Christmas season. It is set in the Middle Ages and is generally comedic in nature. The meal is divided into courses, each of which is heralded with a traditional song. A play is performed between the courses and a concert of choral music concludes the festivities. The food is provided by Danny’s Catering and O&H Bakery. 

Featuring the students of Academies of Racine - Horlick Vocal and Instrumental music programs under the direction of Mr. Brain Plehn, do not miss the opportunity to see this fantastic evening of theater.   Performances will be held at the Great Hall at The DeKoven Center on December 10th and 11th, 2021 with seating opening at 6 p.m. and the beginning of the feast at 6:30p.m.   Tickets are available by visiting https://bit.ly/renfeast2021
