Christmas Theatre Party

This year's Dinners a l' Art season concludes with a Christmas-in-June
dessert party featuring "The Santa Class", a one-man, one act play.  The
production celebrates the unknown heroes who annually don the hot, red suits
and the big, itchy beards to do their best to pass along the spirit of
warmth, happiness and unqualified love in their personification of Santa.
 You've seen Christmas from many angles, now get a glimpse of what it looks
like from behind the beard.
Because the very nature of the show reveals the great secret of Santa, this
is NOT a show for children.
$20
