And to help audiences experience the joy of the Italian spirit at Christmastime. St. Jean's is very special to us as we held Christmas in Italy® in this magnificent church in December of 2020 during the height of the Pandemic. It is a miracle that we never missed one year of producing this beloved show" says Ms. Fontanelli.
