THE BEST CHRISTMAS PAGEANT EVER runs Dec. 2-10

THE BEST CHRISTMAS PAGEANT EVER
Presented by Fairfield Footlighters
Dec. 2-10
Fairfield

The Herdmans are the meanest kids in town. They lie, steal, smoke and cuss. Teachers pass the kids on to the next grade because inevitably another Herdman will be coming into their class. There were six Herdmans – Ralph, Imogene, Leroy, Claude, Ollie and Gladys. Their father had disappeared when Gladys was two and their mom worked double shifts at the shoe factory and was never home. The Herdmans were bullies and did whatever they wanted. So, it surprised the town when they showed up one day to Sunday school. Charlie told Leroy Herdman that they could get free food if they showed up at Sunday school – never thinking they would come. But they did, the Herdmans decided to come the day that the Christmas pageant parts were being assigned and they end up taking over the pageant. But in the end the whole Church learns the true meaning of Christmas – including the Herdmans!

THE LAST TRAIN TO NIBROC runs Nov. 11-20

THE LAST TRAIN TO NIBROC
Presented by Fairfield Footlighters
Nov. 11-20
Fairfield 

Set between 1940-1943, “Nibroc” begins aboard a train with the chance encounter between a recently discharged soldier named Raleigh and a young schoolteacher named May. The strangers on a train discover they hale from the same part of Kentucky and begin to fall for each other.

Raleigh, who was discharged from the Army because he suffers from epilepsy, is intent on moving to New York to become a writer. May, who has a burning desire to help others, is preparing for missionary work abroad. Their dreams seem to point in opposite directions, as do their temperaments.

Raleigh, with a gentle sense of humor and a tolerance for other people’s faults is extremely sensitive about his own. His easily hurt pride is a stumbling block in his courtship of May, whose generous spirit is tempered by a judgmental streak stemming from her sheltered life.

Directed by Patricia Davis and produced by John Vanderplough

Cast: Elizabeth McDonough as May& Chris Server as Raleigh

In the first act of PLAZA SUITE, Sam Nash and his wife Karen are celebrating their anniversary by returning to the suite where they honeymooned 24 years ago. Trying to get her inattentive husband’s attention and spruce up their failing marriage, Karen attempts to rekindle the romance that the couple once had while Sam has some secretly seductive plans of his own. In the second act, movie producer, Jesse Kiplinger, tries to put the moves on his old flame Muriel Tate in true Hollywood fashion.
