A Child's Christmas in Wales
You’re invited to join community members of all ages as Watts Hall Community Players read Dylan Thomas’s holiday classic of Christmases long ago. This annual event isn’t long but is a lovely way to gather. Hot chocolate and carols will be sung following the reading.
FREE and donations to AIO’s Energy Assistance Program are welcome.
Hope to see you there!
You Can't Take it With You
Sunday, March 2, 3 PM
Friday, March 8 & Saturday, March 9, 7 PM
“You Can’t Take it With You” is the story of a not-what-you-call “typical” family, the Sycamores. They are a collection of contented eccentrics who make fireworks, write but never finish plays, operate printing presses, and play the xylophone in pursuit of self-fulfillment. Among this mix of zany characters is one “normal” daughter who falls in love with her boss’s son. Upon her engagement, plans are made to introduce the two families. When her fiance and his parents show up a day early, the collision between the quirky Sycamores and stolid Kirbys sets off hilarious absurdities and improbabilities. In the end, “You Can’t Take it With You” reminds us what is important in life – the wholehearted pursuit of Happiness.
