Despite Controversy, Local Producers Bring JR. CLAUS To Burnsville PAC

"JUNIOR CLAUS", the family holiday musical, is being brought to the Twin Cities South Metro for the 2009 holiday season by two local theater producers.

"JUNIOR CLAUS" is set for a 17 performance run, December 10th-27th, at the Burnsville Performing Arts Center, a subject of some controversy for some people who feel the all-new $20M facility isn't delivering on the promise to bring big events into the area.

Despite the controversy, Steve Barberio and Sam Graber are the accomplished producers from the Twin Cities Metro who are personally bringing together an all-star cast, top area professionals, and New York connections to make "JUNIOR CLAUS" the event of the season for Twin Cities South Metro families.

"JUNIOR CLAUS" is the hilarious and heartwarming tale that takes place days before Christmas Eve at the North Pole, when Santa Claus stubs a toe and young Junior must learn the art of climbing down chimneys, driving wild reindeer and everything else that goes into making the big present delivery.

"JUNIOR CLAUS" was developed in the very same New York City studios where Broadway's biggest shows rehearse. Before going nationwide under the producers' Beyond Broadway touring venture, a special Twin Cities run with Best Buy as the title sponsor gives the Twin Cities South Metro 600,000+ residents an exclusive gift this December 2009 holiday season.
