The Santaland Diaries & Season's Greetings
THE SANTALAND DIARIES, featuring Brendan Applegate, is a brilliant evocation of what a slacker's Christmas must feel like. Out of work, our slacker decides to become a Macy's elf during the holiday crunch.
Season's Greetings, featuring Joanne Smith, is another funny, touching and twisted monologue about the season, told in the version of the "Christmas letter".

Mile Square Theatre presents:
A Christmas Carol
Charles Dickens’s beloved holiday story is brought to life in a tour de force solo performance by Lenard Petit. In A Christmas Carol Mr. Petit appears as the spirit of Charles Dickens, who in the reading of his classic novella, creates a magical world of characters, from past, present, and future, and brings to life this time-tested story of a cold-hearted miser who finds redemption on Christmas Eve.
Sat. Dec. 4 & 18 at 3pm & 8pm
Sun. Dec. 5 & 19 at 3pm
Tickets: $20 • Students and Seniors: $12
