BWW Previews: A CHARLIE BROWN CHRISTMAS at Sinclair Community College
Back by popular demand, Sinclair Theatre will present A CHARLIE BROWN CHRISTMAS LIVE ON STAGE in Blair Hall, Dec. 13-16, on the downtown Dayton campus. Listed by local media as a "Can't-Miss Family Show to Celebrate the Holidays," this 40-minute production is a perfect introduction for young children to LIVE theatre.
Directed by Gina Kleesattel with music direction by David Brush and choreography by Rodney Veal, this faithful stage adaptation of the 1965 animated TV special based on Charles M. Schulz's Peanuts characters features Charlie Brown, Snoopy and the gang as they grapple with the real meaning of Christmas. Featuring colorful costumes and scenery, the show is perfect for school, church, scout and other youth groups.
"This has become a tradition for groups and families as we enter our fifth year of performances," says Gina Neuerer, chair of Sinclair's Music, Theatre and Dance Dept. "We're thrilled that people are gathering friends and family to come to Blair Hall to experience this very special holiday event together."
All seats are reserved at $8 each and the regular house policy of "no children under 6" has been lifted. However, all patrons, regardless of age, must have a ticket. Please review detailed house policies before ordering tickets.
Tickets are available online now at: http://www.sinclair.edu/tickets and one performance is already sold out.
