HOLIDAY SPIRITS

Haunting Stories & Music from America's Frosty Past

A wintery holiday show with classic stories, choral music and poetry!

Did you know that during the American Reovlution the Continental Congress banned theater?! For just three evenings, we will be bringing back the actors banned from America to learn what they can teach us about winter times past, present and future!

This clever and heart-felt 75-minute show is appropriate for the entire family. Join us in the magical setting of the historic Assembly Hall of the Church of Saint John the Evangelist.

Performances:

  • December 4th, 5th, and 6th at 7pm
  • December 6th at 4pm.

Free parking along the street and in the church's parking lot. Seating Limited to 60 people per show so reserve your seats now!

Musical arrangement's include Good King Wenceslas, In the Bleak Midwinter, and Gloucestershire Wassail!

Authors include Charles Dickens, Edgar Allen Poe, Mary Jenness, Christina Rossetti, and more!

Note: Last minute walk-up tickets are available for each performance, including those currently marked as "sold out."
