Santa, Mom, the elves and chorus, too, are all looking forward to giving a present to you.

They’ve practiced their lines; they sing their songs with flair, all in hopes that you will be there.

So come to the theatre, come one, and come all to enjoy their production, they’ve practiced all fall.

There’s no intermission, but just wait and see, after the show, oh what fun there will be. Santa will stay in the Green Room for a while, ready to listen to each child with a smile. Cookies and cocoa will be waiting, too, for all of our guests as they wait to see Santa and the merry cast, too.

Tickets are $10 each. No less and no more. That’s a great deal for the fun we have in store. There is a pre-show open raffle bar and a silent auction, too.

So if you’ve some Christmas shopping left, then NLT is the place for you. Enjoy the show, place a bid, you don’t have to be present to win. We know you will love our theatre and want to come back again and again. So buy a season membership for yourself and for a friend; carry on the merriment, let the fun never end.

While our play may be over on the 16th it is true, there is so much more for the NLT crew to do. Remember we still have the Winter Youth Workshop on the Dec. 27. Disney’s “Mary Poppins” will occupy the children from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., teaching them acting, singing, choreography and more.

Terrence Robinson and Katie Borum shall lead on this day, so if you have a child ages 7 to 18, sign them up right away. For a $75 fee, it even includes a pizza party. Spaces are limited and high in demand so make reservations as soon as you can.
