After three years in the McLaughlin Theater at St. Ignatius College Prep, Our Lady of Pompeii’s popular Mary and Christmas concert will hold forth, once again, at the recently transformed Shrine in Chicago. In another triumphant return, Maestro Paul French will wield the baton as conductor, leading the Shrine chorale and orchestra in a program of Yuletide favorites and classics on Dec. 5. The performance will begin at 7:45 p.m., preceded by a dinner at 6 p.m. and a champagne and pastry reception afterward. Complimentary valet parking will be available. Tickets are $175.
