Our winter show for November 2024 will be a musical based on the well-known Christmas film Miracle on 34th Street.
Single mother, Doris Walker, doesn’t want her six-year-old Susan’s head filled with romantic notions. Their neighbour, Fred Gailey, tries to woo Doris by charming Susan and taking her to see Santa Claus at Macy’s, where Doris works. Doris is not impressed, but when it turns out that Macy’s Santa may, in fact, be the real Kris Kringle, a wave of love spreads across New York City that melts even the most cynical hearts.
Filled with humour, spectacle and such beloved songs as “Pinecones and Hollyberries,” “It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas” and “My State, My Kansas,” this joyous, heartwarming musical is pure family entertainment.
A holiday classic from the writer of the musical theatre classic, The Music Man!, and based on the film of the same name, Miracle on 34th Street features a score by Meredith Willson.
We expect to hold auditions for the show in May, so keep an eye on our website and socials for the character list and audition notices!
Performances are at Ponteland Memorial Hall on November 15th (7pm), 16th (2pm and 7pm) and 17th (2pm) and tickets are on sale now!
