Christmas Belles
By: Jones, Hope & Wooten
Directed by: Traci McGinn
Silent night? Not a chance! A small-town church Christmas program spins hilariously out of control in this delightful Southern farce. Between two fiercely squabbling sisters, a vault of buried family secrets, a deeply surly Santa, a vengeful live sheep, and a highly reluctant Elvis impersonator, it’s a miracle the nativity scene is even standing. Drop everything and join this eccentric clan for a misadventure-filled Christmas Eve that is guaranteed to bring joy to your world!
