RUNS DECEMBER 1 THROUGH DECEMBER 15
AT
THEATRE AT THE CENTER
THEATRE FOR YOUNG AUDIENCES
Theatre at the Center’s Theatre for Young Audiences, 1040 Ridge Road, Munster, Indiana, will present The Christmas That Almost Wasn’t, the “behind the scenes” story of Christmas written for children, by children performed by Child’s Play Touring Theatre. The Christmas That Almost Wasn’t will run December 1 through December 15.
The true spirit of the holidays is brought to life in three short plays in The Christmas That Almost Wasn’t. The hustle and bustle and near disasters of the Christmas season are brought to life during “Dinky the Dancing Reindeer”, “How Santa Got Well” and “Santa and the Witch”. Dancing reindeer, medical mix-ups and a spell casting witch are all involved in these delightful tales of narrowly averted Christmas disasters. Join Santa and friends for a behind-the-scenes peek at the entertaining Christmas preparations at the North Pole.
