Act Out - What Could go Wrong the Night Before Christmas?

The Newington Children's Theatre Company is proud to present their second one-act of their Act Out 2018-19 season, What Could go Wrong the Night Before Christmas? Performances are Friday, December 14, at 7pm and Saturday, December 15, at 2pm. All tickets are $10.

A host attempts to do a lovely reading of The Night Before Christmas but is stymied by every imaginable interruption. First, the children show up wearing costumes and outfits for all the wrong holidays, then it ends up the mice might not be stirring, but they sure are shuffling as they play a game of Go Fish. By the time the clatter on the rooftop sounds more like a deafening rock n roll drum solo, our poor host is about to have a meltdown! On top of it all, our not-quite-classic (and definitely thinner) Santa stops filling stockings to do a PSA on the dangers of smoking and also plugs the usefulness of stain remover pens. Will the mice stir? Will the host ever finish the poem? Will Santa fill all the stockings in time?

Performances will take place at NCTC located at 743 North Mountain Road in Newington. For more information, please call 860.666.NCTC or visit www.NCTCArts.org.
