ALL IS CALM
By: Donald Payton
(: 30 : 5 , 3 , 8 )
There’s something about Christmas that’s happy and peaceful—except at the home of the Maxwell’s. There’s something about Christmas that’s calm and celestial---except Lucas, who is far from either on this Christmas day, because his world has just slid out from under him—no sled. All year long Lucas had talked of a sled, but on Christmas morning…no sled, and he...  read more

When a professional theatre company gets stranded across the country, it's up to a rag-tag group of local theatre people to throw together their own version of Dickens's A Christmas Carol.
