Downtown Cabaret Children's Theatre Presents RUDOLPH AND THE REINDEER GAMES, Now thru 12/30

Just in time for the coming holidays…It's RUDOLPH and the REINDEER GAMES presented by Bridgeport's Downtown Cabaret Children's Theatre. Family-friendly performances on Saturdays and Sundays began November 10 and continue through December 30 (2012) at the Downtown Cabaret Theatre, located at 263 Golden Hill Street in Bridgeport, Connecticut.

It's the 73rd annual Reindeer Games featuring familiar names, characters and basic story, but with just enough added twists and turns along with lots of music and dance. Santa's North Pole Team is hoping the odds are in their favor for the Games. Rudy, the young, new contestant who's a "chip off the old buck," looks like he may "sleigh" the competition, but five-time Champion Donner isn't giving up his title without a fight! Spunky Rudy has everything going for him – but then he's disqualified because of his bright red nose! Even worse, it appears he's betrayed Dancer, the doe who "lights up his life." Humiliated, he runs off just as the worst blizzard to ever hit the North Pole is about to strike. Now, not only is the North Pole Team in jeopardy of losing the Games, but it appears that due to the pending blizzard Santa may have to cancel Christmas for the first time in history! The storm's knocked out his GPS, and the Reindeer can't see a paw in front of their faces to guide his sleigh. So it's up to Rudloph…can he find the courage to win the games, get the doe of his dreams, and save Christmas?

Marie Vee, long-time veteran of Downtown Cabaret Children's Theatre, has written and will direct this all-new, modern, funny, heartwarming holiday take on the story of Santa's reindeer. It's a rollicking adventure highlighted by a montage of unique winter sports never before seen at the Olympics with a score of pop songs that will make everyone in the audience want to get out of their seats to sing and dance along.

Rudolph, along with all the other reindeer on the team, reminds everyone to celebrate and be proud of the qualities that make each of us different, unique and extra special! It's guaranteed that kids and adults will be laughing, cheering, and chanting "RU-DY!" "RU-DY!" "RU-DY!"
