ABOUT THE SHOW    

                                                                                          The play takes place the week before Christmas, as struggling artist, Ethan Claymore meets a woman who could turn his life around, and receives a visit from his estranged, and recently-deceased, older brother.  "Captures the softness of a Norman Rockwell winter scene to come up with a truly affectionate  comedy." - St. Thomas Times-Journal.  "A heartwarming Christmas story and one of Norm Foster's best scripts." - Fredericton Daily Gleaner.   "A play with heart and humour." - Kitchener-Waterloo Record.  If Frank Capra (IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE) was still around and making movies, this could easily have been one of his films.  Heartwarming, up-lifting – this show has it all.  Destined to become a new holiday classic!

  All cast and crew receive stipend payments for performances.
