TJC Apache Band and Apache Belles to present Christmas Extravaganza

For their inaugural Christmas Extravaganza, the TJC Apache Band and Apache Belles are hauling out the holly, the tinsel and the showstopping holiday tunes — plus a few surprises.

“In honor of the 75th anniversary of the TJC Apache Belles and Apache Band, we’re celebrating ‘the most wonderful time of the year’ — together!” said Apache Belles Director Jasilyn Schaefer.
 
TJC Director of Bands Jeremy Strickland added, “Think of this show as ‘the Radio City Rockettes meet the Boston Pops’. It’s a big, splashy holiday show that includes live music, costumes, dancing, sing-alongs, special guests, cookies, you-name-it. It’s going to be a blast for the performers and the audience. We really want to make this a new tradition for the community.”
 
Show times are 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday, Dec. 9 and 10, in Wise Auditorium, located in the Rogers Palmer Performing Arts Center on the TJC central campus.
 
Admission is $10 for ages 6 and up. (Children ages 5 and under are admitted free, but they must sit in an adult lap if the show is sold out.)
 
Tickets can be purchased online by going to etix.com and searching for “Band & Belles Christmas Extravaganza.”
