MusicalFare presents the World Premiere of CHRISTMAS OVER THE TAVERN

MusicalFare Theatre, Western New York's most awarded and only professional musical theatre company, presents the World Premiere musical: CHRISTMAS OVER THE TAVERN. From acclaimed playwright and Buffalo native, Tom Dudzick, the production features an all-new holiday story ABOUT Buffalo's favorite family, the Pazinskis, from his OVER THE TAVERN series.

Christmas 1959 is not very merry for the Pazinskis. Dad is going through a mid-life depression and refuses to buy a Christmas tree. Sister Clarissa is threatening to expel 12-year-old Rudy for performing a blasphemous one-man Nativity Scene where he plays all the characters as Hollywood celebrities and everyone is worried that this may be their last Christmas together as a whole family. It's a brand new chapter in this WNY tradition!

The production stars Jacob Albarella, Isaac Fesmire, Samuel Fesmire, Wendy Hall, Pamela Rose Mangus, Caroline Schettler and Michael Scime. Set Design is by Dyan Burlingame, Lighting & Sound Design is by Chris Cavanagh, Costume Design is by Kari Drozd and Hair, Wig & Make-up Design is by Susan Drozd.

The performance schedule is November 14th - December 16th, Wednesdays at 7:00pm, Thursdays at 7:00pm, Fridays at7:30pm, Saturdays at 3:30pm and 7:30pm and Sundays at 2:00pm.
