Two live-stream events December 10 & 17.

On Stage December 1-18!

Our annual holiday musical Raising Twelve on a Nickel and a Prayer by Fran Taylor Powers and music by Terez Hartman is a story spanning three Christmas seasons beginning in 1950 when Betty reveals to a young sailor Harold her dream of wanting twelve children. The story continues with living on a Navy paycheck, broken promises, an adventure by train cross-country, and the bleak Christmas of 1963 when Betty is raising children alone in a new city while Harold is at sea. Just before their dream is to be realized, they learn that Betty, or baby number twelve will die in childbirth. Christmas of 1966 is one to remember.
