Join Mason Community Players for a Special Christmas Show

Please come celebrate the season with the Mason Community Players as they present Welcome to Our Home for Christmas. This joyful Christmas revue unfolds in a cozy dinner-theatre-style setting. The atmosphere will sparkle with heartfelt instrumentals from a live ensemble.

Experience the holiday wonder as the musical revue fills the air with a variety of Christmas songs – carols, humorous, medleys, modern, popular, traditional, and winter tunes. Some of the songs will incorporate ballet, clogging, jazz, soft shoe, and tap dance performances.

Welcome to Our Home for Christmas will showcase 48 performers, including dancers, instrumentalists, and vocalists as young as age five. Amongst the performers are dozens of double and triple threats.

This Christmas show will be presented in a “dining room” atmosphere in the Mason Community Playhouse located at 5529 Mason Road in Mason. The theatre will offer light holiday refreshments, including beverages, desserts, and finger foods.

Welcome to Our Home for Christmas performances will occur on December 4, 5, and 6 at 8 p.m. and December 7 at 2 p.m.

Tickets cost $35 and include holiday-themed refreshments. Patrons can purchase tickets online at MasonPlayers.org, by calling 513-398- 7804, or at the door. The box office opens one hour before the curtain.

Welcome to our home for Christmas, this season and always!

Cincinnati Shakespeare Company
Dec. 10-28

CSC’s holiday smash hit Every Christmas Story Ever Told (And Then Some!) is back again for another season of holiday hilarity! What begins as another annual production of A Christmas Carol, soon devolves into a slightly irreverent (but undeniably adoring) look at all of your “Beloved Holiday Classics” including pop culture favorites like It’s a Wonderful Life, The Grinch, Rudolph, Charlie Brown and more! Add in topical references that always keep this annual tradition fresh and fun as we send up everything from Dickens to Dr. Seuss in an evening of high octane jollity and frivolity. Content Advisory: Contains mild adult humor, PG13; not recommended for anyone who still believes in Santa.
