The Okanagan Symphony Orchestra’s annual family matinee is just a week away, set for Saturday, Dec. 3, at the Rotary Centre for the Arts.

This year, it’s a performance of Hansel and Gretel, featuring the Okanagan Children’s Choir as guest artists.

“Playful and poignant, this well-loved story is brought to life with a wonderful quartet of singers, the Okanagan Children’s Choir and the Okanagan Symphony Orchestra,” said the Orchestra’s music director, Rosemary Thompson. “This is going to be a great performance for families with children aged six through 10 and we encourage the entire family to come and enjoy this performance.”

There are two performances on Saturday, one at 2 p.m. with the other at 4 p.m., and the shows are just one hour each. Tickets are $23 for adults, $19 for seniors and $14 for youth, or you can buy a family four-pack for $62. You can find those tickets by phone through the Rotary Centre for the Arts or online at www.okanagansymphony.com.

The Okanagan Symphony Orchestra is the third largest professional symphony orchestra in B.C., entertaining residents and visitors in the Okanagan with symphony music since 1960.
