Christmas Eve has come, but the Russian shoemaker Papa Panovich is sad and alone. He believes Jesus tells him that HE will visit him tomorrow. All the next day Papa Panovich stops to help many-providing a warm drink for Ivan, the street sweeper, encouraging a struggling widow, keeping a gang of pickpockets out of trouble and finally giving a pair of shoes to a young mother’s child. In the end Papa learns a timeless lesson. In this beautiful version the Scriptural account of Christmas is woven into the play.
ALL ENROLLED DANCERS are also welcome to audition for speaking parts in the play.
REHEARSALS will be SATURDAY 11-12.
All who audition must be enrolled in any class at Charis Performing Arts Center
