CAPTAIN HOOK'S VERY BAD CHRISTMAS

Captain Hook is having a terrible Christmas. The pirates are singing horrible renditions of Christmas carols, the tree is dismal, and worst of all—there is no Wendy to read them a story on Christmas Eve. Being the cleverest Captain in Neverland, Hook decides to bring a Wendy back for all the pirates. There is only one way this can go down—stealing pixie dust, dressing as...

CHESTNUTS ROASTED

A collection of five holiday-themed comedies, which could be performed individually, or all together as a complete evening.

A CHRISTMAS CAROL CAROL finds Charles Dickens visited by a ghostly figure who warns him that his...

Gadzooks! The Royal Shakespeare Company hasn't arrived as promised to perform their stirring rendition of "A Christmas Carol."

THE DAY BEFORE CHRISTMAS

In this new holiday musical spectacular, The Day Before Christmas, there is a flurry of activity at the North Pole.

GIFT OF THE MAGI - THE MUSICAL

It's Christmas in New York in 1905. Imagine the excitement of a busy street, bustling with shoppers and carolers singing joys of the season. Della, a stunning young woman, strolls along, looking in store windows, a bit saddened that she only has $1.87 to spend on a gift for her husband, Jim. Down the street, Jim does likewise; wistfully knowing that the items in the stores...

MR. POTCHER'S HOLIDAY

Mr. Potcher cancels the arts and extracurricular activities in the school where he has been hired as consultant. Darcy, a student desperate to fit in with the other kids, tries to change his mind. But she not only fails, she also inadvertently gives him the idea to eliminate all the holidays, which he does with a magic calendar. The outraged students ostracize Darcy....

ONE TOY FOR CHRISTMAS

This fast-paced, witty play blends zany animal characters with a boy who is fearful that Santa will not be able to find him. The laughs will keep rolling as we join a small group of hungry forest animals in a desperate search for food on Christmas Eve. In the midst of their search, distant bells are heard and a wind-up soldier (mime role) plummets from the sky. Albert, the...

THE REGIFTERS

When a couple "regifts" a not-so-great Christmas present, then finds out it's worth a fortune, they will stop at nothing to get it back. But they're not the only ones who rewrapped it… In the mad pursuit to reclaim the gift, everyone who gave it away learns about friendship, real wealth, and the value of a gift truly given.

SCROOGE MACBETH

Scrooge Macbeth takes the meaning of “the show must go on” to a whole new level.

But that's not the only setback: Sylvia...

SCROOGE'S CHRISTMAS

In Ken Jones's adaptation of Charles Dickens's classic tale, A Christmas Carol, a group of actors portray all the characters of this Christmas tradition.

Alice's boyfriend has decided to surprise her by sending her all of the twelve gifts mentioned in the traditional carol....
