“It’s
impossible not to be drawn into a compelling story that explores
the nuances of family dynamics.” John Hayes, Pittsburgh
Post-Gazette
“...strong,
distinctive characters” and a “clear dramatic
arc and powerful emotional depth” and “engrossing,
thought-provoking . . . richly written and playable”.
Nick Olcott of Washington’s Round House Theatre

"...written
with breath-on-the-glass intimacy. Leonhard's gutteral howls laced
with stark poetry echo the visceral Vietnam era plays
of the late 70's."

The
Legend of Santa Pig
by William Springer
An
answer to the age-old question -- “If
it's Christmas in the barnyard and no one is around, will the
animals have one bang-up Christmas party?”
December 4, 5, 6, 11, 12, 13 @
8 PM
Tanner Theatre, Monongalia Arts Center
Family Friendly
Well, the
answer is definitely, "Yes !!!" With FIDO, the PC (that’s
“Pet of Ceremonies”) warming up the audience, the
story unfolds. . .
It’s
Christmas eve and young TIMMY and BETH MacDonald fall asleep with
visions of sugar plums and farm animals signing and dancing in
the heads.
The action moves to the barnyard to the barnyard where all of
the animals are getting ready for the holiday festivities –
all except BILLY, The Grumpy Old Goat. TIMMY & BETH help the
rest of the animals to get old BILLY into the Christmas Spirit
and Mrs. Cow tells everyone the "The Legend Of Santa Pig"
as a part of the celebration. |
