Natalie MacMaster and Donnell Leahy return to the Center for the Arts for a Celtic experience
like no other. In A Celtic Family Christmas, the charming duo invites you and your family into
their holiday traditions on Cape Breton Island with charming stories of family, farming, food,
and plenty of music. Even their talented children will join in the foot-stomping jigs, dizzying
fiddling, soulful ballads, and spirited two-stepping. Fiddle masters in their own right, when
MacMaster and Leahy combine their talents and magnetic chemistry, the stage crackles with
electric energy. “Nothing short of jaw dropping… There are performances here that will raise
you up and performances that will leave you misty-eyed” (The Guardian).
Ages: This performance is appropriate for all ages.
Center for the Arts at George Mason University is at 4373 Mason Pond Drive, Fairfax, VA.
