These two charming Christmas works (one embraces the sacred side of the holiday, the other is secular and silly) will be staged with a live orchestra. Fun for audience members of all ages!
AMAHL AND THE NIGHT VISITORS follows a poor, disabled shepherd boy named Amahl. One night he and his mother receive an unexpected visit from the three Wise Men on their way to Bethlehem to visit the newborn Jesus. Filled with charming exchanges that build to a powerful climax of grace, redemption and a miraculous healing.
This WEST COAST PREMIERE of THE FOUR LOST SANTAS features a quartet of Santas, lost and stranded by the side of the road with their broken-down car, missing their big break at SantaCon. A mother and son (Judy and Rudy), late to their performance of Amahl and the Night Visitors, come across them and agree to help. Will the Santas make it to SantaCon? Do Judy and Rudy make it to the theatre on time? Join us to find out!
