I try to search around and make sure I'm up on the latest community theatre shows in our area, and was surprised to see very few Christmas shows the last time I looked - so I wrote a blog post about the shortage of shows, only to find out I had overlooked a bunch of 'em!
My pal Melanie Larch wrote to say, .
..there are three other holiday shows happening in Charleston (in addition to Mary). Children's Theatre is presenting Babes In Toyland next week. Charleston Stage Company brings the one man show, The Santaland Diaries to the WVSU Capitol Center Theatre December 11-13. That same weekend, Kanawha Players presents John Jakes' adaptation of A Christmas Carol.Then my pal Shirlee Idzakovich wrote:
There is a lot to do in Portsmouth, Ohio for the Holiday season, including A Beautiful Renaissance Feaste and the classic story of Miracle on 34th Street.Then my pal Stephen Vance added:
The Portsmouth Little Theatre is doing Miracle on 34th Street on Dec. 5,6 and 12,13 with a matinee on the 6th. It is a great cast and Ivy Idzakovich is little Susan Walker (Macy and Ravan's little sister from Cats and Millie!) It has a great cast of over 30 and is directed by Michael Stapelton and Jason Chaney. The Portsmouth Little Theatre is celebrating their 60th Anniversary! Tickets are available at the theatre at 1117 Lawson Street or by calling 740-353-7034.
Also THE Portsmouth West High School is doing A Renaissance Feaste. Once every four years the entire choir comes together with costumes and props of olde to host a magnificent Feaste. Songs, food, dance along with a king and queen and their court. Under the direction of Linda Tieman, suitable for the entire family. Tickets can be purchased by calling 740-858-1103. The Feaste will be held at Portsmouth West High School, Route 52 West on Dec. 6 at 6:00 p.m. (reservations are required).
...for all intents and purposes the 1940s Radio Hour is a Christmas/Holiday Show. The broadcast portrayed during the play occurs on December 21, 1942. In fact, it happens on a snowy NYC night and is dedicated as a Christmas gift to the boys overseas.Great to see our communities will have several shows to choose from after all. Thanks for the info, everyone - and Happy Holidays!
