Tree Lighting Ceremony November 24, 2010

The holiday season will officially begin as hundreds of Houston children gather to celebrate Houston Ballet's 23rd Annual Tree Lighting Ceremony. The highlight of the event will be when Houston Ballet dancer Lauren Ciobanu, as the Sugar Plum Fairy, lights the theater's 25-foot Christmas tree. Other festivities include visits from characters in The Nutcracker, as well as live holiday music by local bands and choirs.
