DOTHAN - A CHARLIE BROWN CHRISTMAS @ CULTURAL ARTS CENTER Opening Night Nov 28 - Dec 1
Here is an absolutely perfect way to begin the Christmas holidays with your family! Follow the Thanksgiving holiday by going to see "A Charlie Brown Christmas" live on stage! Based on the Christmas cartoon tradition we have loved for so many years! Come to see your favorite characters in the Christmas season together.
When Charlie Brown complains about the overwhelming materialism he sees among everyone during the Christmas season, Lucy suggests that he become director of the school Christmas pageant. Charlie Brown accepts, but this proves to be a frustrating endeavor. When an attempt to restore the proper holiday spirit with a forlorn little Christmas fir tree fails, he needs Linus’ help to discover the real meaning of Christmas. Linus recites the Christmas story from Luke 2 to encourage his friend in the holiday season.
Cost: 15.00
