Actors’ Summit Offers
Two Holiday Shows
Actors’ Summit, Hudson’s professional theater announced two classic holiday
shows for 2007. A Child’s Christmas in Wales will return to the main stage
for a four week run beginning November 29. For the young (ages 2 – 10), and
the young at heart, the theater will present A Winnie-The-Pooh Christmas Tail.
The show for young audiences will have a nine performance run, Thursdays,
Fridays, & Saturdays at 10:00 a.m. A Child’s Christmas in Wales will have a
preview performance on Thursday November 29, and will play through December 23
at Actors’ Summit Theater in downtown Hudson. The play is performed Thursdays,
Fridays, & Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m.
The Plays
A Child’s Christmas in Wales is based on the short story by the poet Dylan
Thomas. This particular version was commissioned by the Great Lakes Theatre
Festival and was adapted by Jeremy Brooks and Adrian Mitchell. The play begins
with Dylan waking up on Christmas morning and follows his adventures through
one perfect Christmas day in Wales in the 1930’s. There’s dinner with the
aunts and uncles and cousins, playing out of doors, telling ghost stories,
and singing songs. This was also the year that Mom burned the turkey, and the
fire brigade arrived, put it out, and then stayed for a drink. Filled with
music of the season, the play is a perfect holiday outing for the whole family.
A Winnie-The-Pooh Christmas Tail was adapted from a number of A. A. Milne’s
stories by James W. Rodgers. This will mark the seventh year that Actors’
Summit has offered this delightful musical for young audiences. There are only
a few hours left before the start of the Christmas party and Eeyore has lost
his tail. Winnie-the-Pooh, Christopher Robin, Tigger, Piglet, Rabbit, Owl,
Kanga, and even baby Roo volunteer to help find the tail in time for the party.
Performance Schedule
A Child’s Christmas in Wales will have a preview performance on Thursday
November 29. The official opening on Friday, November 30 will be followed by a
reception with the cast. Regular performances continue through Nov. 4,
Thursdays, Fridays & Saturdays at 8:00 p.m. and Sundays at 2:00 p.m.
