CALGARY Occasional Notes Productions is encouraging families to stay home and celebrate Christmas by offering an online musical production for this holiday season. Family musical Candy Cane Kids has transformed from a stage production into a film that is available online through video-on-demand until Jan.2. Candy Cane Kids was a live family show performed in Calgary for the past two years and was part of the Calgary Zoo’s holiday fare. This all-Canadian family movie was produced by Occasional Notes Productions during the COVID-19 pandemic and features Calgary actors, singers, dancers and production team. “Candy Cane Kids will appeal to the kid in all of us at Christmas. It is much like opening a box of Christmas candy! It is bright colourful, nutty, traditional and sentimental,” said producer and co-founder of Occasional Notes Production, Barb Mitchell.
