Join us and Chicago Danztheatre Ensemble for a delightful fusion of cinematic wonder, festive decorations, delectable treats, and engaging activities to bring together your loved ones and celebrate the holiday spirit.

The main attractions of this year’s celebration are the screenings of Rankin/Bass’ famous and beloved The Year Without a Santa Claus (1974) and Rudolph’s Shiny New Year (1976). These films are renowned for their endearing characters (Heat Miser is our favorite!), captivating stories, and timeless messages of love, friendship, and the magic of the holiday season. Audiences are encouraged to singalong with your favorite songs, and quote-along with your favorite lines in this unique interactive viewing experience!

FACETS will be transformed into a snowy Rankin/Bass world, transporting everyone into a land of wonder and joy. In between screenings grab a snack at Rudolph’s Dessert Bar or play Reindeer Games in the Studio including Ornament-making, Reindeer Photo Booth and animation creation. Stay for all or only part of the day – ideal for families with young ones ages 3-10.
