Every Christmas Story Ever Told (and then some!) Opens 12/10 at Pull-Tight Players Theater
What would happen if you gave five actors 90 minutes to perform every Christmas tradition, movie, TV special, and song? You'd get "Every Christmas Story Ever Told (And Then Some!)". The talented, if somewhat overwhelmed, performers (Robby Coles, Beth Henderson, Dresden Leebron, James Rudolph, and Owen Sullivan) each have to take on 12+ roles, from Rudolph to Frosty to the Grinch to Ebenezer Scrooge. Through it all, the actors keep the laughs coming, often improving to insure a new experience for every audience. The show promises to be a madcap romp, lovingly parodying many of the institutions of the season that we all hold dear.
The show is directed by Wade Woodruff and produced by Cary Smith. Stan Ferguson is in charge backstage, supported by props mistress Mo Kirkpatrick, with Kelsey Person and Scott Aiello in the tech booth. Steven Steele is designing the lighting, while cast member Robby Coles has added another role to his overflowing plate: sound design. Melissa Williams and Pat Warr are in charge of finding a ludicrous number of props, and Laurel Aiello and Anne Rittenberry are putting together costumes. The music for the show was recorded by Stephanie and Chris Dillard, under the supervision of Alexander Dillard.
"Every Christmas Story Ever Told (And Then Some!)" opens on Friday, December the 10th, with performances on 12/11 and 12/12, and 12/16-12/18. Doors open at 7:00 pm for a 7:30 curtain, except for Sunday the 12th, which is a 2:30 matinee (doors at 2:00). Tickets go on sale Monday, November the 29th, and are $16.00 for adults, $14.00 for seniors, and $12.00 for kids thru high school.
Come join us for a sleighride over the hills of hilarity, pulled by reindeer who've gotten into the Christmas eggnog!
