DS at Candlight Processional at WDW!!!!!

[DisneyIsTerrific]

On Friday evening, DS and his chorus from school participated in the Candlelight Processional at WDW. It was such a beautiful show. DS said it was a great experience and loved it.

I took some photos. I was in the back few rows since I didn't do the Candlight dining package (they get the front 3/4's of the rows) and there were lots of tall people in front of me! Anyway, I got some of DS, but couldn't get the entire choir.

This is DS (he's the 2nd to the last boy from the right (he's the tallest) ) during the processional as they enter the theatre.

As much of the full choir as I could get - DS was in the group on the far right which I didn't get all of.

DS and part of the choir - DS is in front of the older guy with the beard at the back.

Another one with different lighting

Isabella Rossellini - she was the narrator on Friday. She was awesome!

If you've never seen the Candlelight Processional and will be at WDW between now and Christmas, it is definitely worth seeing. It's beautiful!

I have seen Candlelight Procession, and you are right, it is a wonderful performance, but I am certain it would be better to see someone we know performing. What a wonderful experience for your son. You must have been very proud.

High school stage to Candlelight Procession to Broadway!!

Our family saw the 6:45 show on Friday night too! I will look at my pictures and see if we have any of your son. DH was taking the pictures with our high zoom, so it is possible we might have some. We had the dining package and sat in the middle section about half way up.
I'll keep you posted!

I don't know. The school's chorus instructor arranged it.

Thank you, but DS was in the 5:00 p.m. performance and they only do the one show so he wouldn't have been in the 6:45 one.

Thanks everyone for the nice comments. DS was so excited to be part of a performance at Disney and I loved being able to be there and see it!

What a wonderful experience - and isn't he lucky to have a mom who can scrap it creatively for him

 

[ZeroToHero]

That looks great! I am so sorry we weren't able to meet up - when I wasn't working that weekend, I was sleeping.

 

[New England Eeyore]

So fantastic! I'm so glad you were able to get some good pictures. What a wonderful memory for you both, and I'm sure they will make great scrapbook pages!!
