Child's Play Touring Theatre "The Christmas That Almost Wasn't"
The magic of Christmas comes to us year after year. But, for those behind the sparkle of Christmas, the planning isn't always so easy. "The Christmas That Almost Wasn't" provides a special behind-the-scenes peek at the hustle, bustle, and near disasters of the Christmas season. Adapted entirely from stories written by children, audiences will see "Dinky, The Dancing Reindeer," a story about a reindeer who can’t decide if she wants to be a dancer or a member of the sleigh team, almost stopping Santa from getting off the ground. In "How Santa Got Well," an illness keeps Santa at home on Christmas Eve until a cure appears from the most unlikely of places. And, in "Santa and the Witch," Santa falls under a sleeping spell by a witch whose heart has turned to ice. It will take a special toy made by the elves to make her change her mind about Christmas before it's too late. Part of our Family Series.
