The Greatest Gift
A Script in Hand Playreading
Book and Lyrics by David Wiltse
Music by Denis King
Directed by Mark Shanahan
Take a break from the classics this December with a staged reading of a charming new play with music, the story of the Smith-Baron family who celebrate the holidays in their own way. When eight-year-old Emma bumps her head in a fall, sending her into a fantastical dream world, she and her parents discover that what really matters has nothing to do with gifts and ritual and all to do with who you love. A warm and touching tale the whole family can enjoy.
Monday, December 13th at 7pm

All tickets: $15

or call 203.227.4177
