Dec. 3, 2025: This weekend, the Bronxville School Auditorium will once again fill with music, color, and the warmth of community as Concordia Conservatory presents its 26th annual holiday musical, The Spirit Society. Performances take place Saturday, December 6 at 3:00 PM and 7:00 PM, and Sunday, December 7 at 3:00 PM.
A beloved tradition since 1999, the Conservatory’s holiday musical brings together families, students, alumni, educators, and neighbors for a shared celebration of creativity and seasonal spirit. This year’s production, written and composed by Joy Redmond and Greg Suss, follows Saint Nicholas as he unites a lively cast of holiday icons—from Cupid and the Easter Bunny to the Great Pumpkin and the Tooth Fairy—to preserve the joy and generosity that define holiday traditions.
At the heart of The Spirit Society is a message of unity: that celebrations are meaningful because they bring people together. The cast itself reflects this theme—it includes young performers from across Westchester, Fairfield County, and the Bronx, and is supported by a dedicated production team featuring Conservatory alumni, local educators, and student interns.
For more than two decades, Concordia Conservatory’s tuition-free holiday musical has been one of the region’s most impactful arts outreach programs, offering area youth the chance to participate regardless of financial circumstance or disability. More than 1,600 performers have taken the stage since the program began, and over 18,000 audience members have enjoyed the show.
“This musical brings our entire community together,” said Executive Director Kathleen Suss. “Each year, we see new families join longtime attendees in celebrating a story that highlights what the holidays are really about—hope, generosity, and connection.”
With its spirited storyline, charming characters, and meaningful message, The Spirit Society is the perfect way for families to welcome the holiday season. Performances often sell out, making early ticket purchase strongly encouraged.
