Two Family Holiday Stories

Two Family Holiday Stories

Join The Winterset Stage for what has become a Holiday Tradition! This year's production includes two short stories that will delight the whole family.
 
Tickets $10 for adults, $8 for children ages 3-12

O. Henry’s The Gift of the Magi (dramatized by Anne Coulter Martens):
This is a touching and beautiful story of a young couple unable to afford presents for each other on their first Christmas together. Each sacrifices a treasure to provide a gift for the other but, in so doing, they work at almost tragically funny cross-purposes. This is a play about young love and the value of giving. Indeed, the Magi were wise—and their gifts were wise gifts, however foolish in the eyes of the practical. 

The Gift of the Magi Cast:
Della - Kimi Reed
Jim - Garrett Livingston
Mrs. Boyd - Katy Schmitt
Madame Safronie - Ann Hegstrom
Felice - Lydia Reed
Ms. Hartman - Kadyn Dimler
Narrator - Pat Rabbitt

A Visit from St. Nicholas (or The Night Before Christmas), A Comedy by Lowell Swortzell: 

On Christmas Eve, 1822, Clement Clarke Moore's house is not as quiet as a mouse—in fact, everyone is stirring. The three children await the arrival of St. Nicholas. Mother and Father arise thinking they hear intruders. Cousin Harriet enlists the children to copy the poem their father has just written for them, which she hopes to have published for all young people to enjoy. But Father, as a distinguished professor who fears being known as a poet for children, burns the poem so it can never leave the house. At first heartbroken, the children unite to save the poem for posterity by improvising it through a riotous enactment. How they convince their father that his verses should be shared with children everywhere brings about the hilarious, happy ending. ??

?A Visit from St. Nicholas Cast:
Harriett - Charlene Watkin
Charity - Ady Soenen
Ben - Jackson Ransom
Margaret - Kassie Trimble
Father - Pat Rabbitt
Mother - Becky Trimble
