"THE LITTLEST LIGHT ON THE CHRISTMAS TREE"

Based on the award-winning film by Peter & Lynne Lewis, Tom Marolda and Larry Holofcener; Music by Peter Lewis, Book by Jim Hindman, Original Lyrics by Tom Marolda and Larry Holofcener, New and Additional Lyrics by Cheryl Stern

A new stage musical developed from the award-winning animated feature. Timothy, an 8-year old whose father has been killed in World War II, encounters the callous and greedy Mr. Girthmore, owner of the town's only department store. Girthmore fools him into spending his last penny to buy a small broken Christmas tree light, telling the young boy that the bulb has magical powers. Against all odds, Timmy believes in the magic of the little light. His belief not only makes his dreams come true, but also ultimately fulfills the dreams of all. While Little Light is an actual character in this magical family holiday production, the theme expands into the "light" of belief, courage, and generosity that ultimately shines on all of the characters.  http://www.littlestlight.com <BLOCKED::http://www.littlestlight.com>
