Christmas on Main Street
by Crown Theatre
Sep. 17 - Sep. 30 (2021)
Six friends who have been stuck in the drudgery of a global pandemic are finally able to put on a show; their own re-telling of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol, but their venue has been double-booked with a children's choir Christmas concert. The two groups decide to combine efforts to spread Christmas joy, and whatever can go wrong, does go wrong, in hilarious fashion. Audiences will be transported to the past and the future, and leave with the gift of Christmas spirit in the present.
