Jim Dandy is being tried in Candy Cane Court for saying the Christmas Spirit is nonsense. A parade of witnesses to the contrary argue Jim Dandy’s claims. From the Wise Men to Mrs. Bob Cratchit and Tiny Tim, The Toymaker and the Magic of Christmas, with help from a little Snow, a reindeer in training and the angel from the top of the Christmas Tree, the case is reviewed by the judge and a court of spectators, including the audience.
“This Christmas play gives our young actors the opportunity to play a wide assortment of characters to tell this story,” said Director Nancy Fox. “Many of our actors are new to the stage and this is a good piece to start with. They have quick changes and lots of character movements.”
In addition to the Christmas themed play, older teens with more stage experience will also present a series of duets with familiar themes. Classic settings and issues common to teens, including Christmas scenarios, will lead the evening’s entertainment, followed by Jingle Bells Jury after intermission.
The production will run one weekend only, Friday and Saturday, December 16 and 17 at 7pm and Sunday, December 18 at 3pm. Tickets are available online and at the door.
