November 24 - December 26
For the first time, the New York Times Bestselling novel, The Christmas Shoes, is being adapted for the stage. Nathan Andrews loving mother is terminally ill, yet he and his cash-strapped family are trying to live life to its fullest. Wealthy Robert Layton is a workaholic attorney on the brink of losing the sweet family he unwittingly neglects. Robert is long overdue for a wake-up call, which arrives when he crosses paths with Nathan on Christmas Eve. The Christmas Shoes is a tale of our shared humanity and a universal story of how the discovery of a power greater than us can shape and even save, our lives.
