Photo Coverage: First look at Gallery Players' CONEY ISLAND CHRISTMAS

By: Jerri Shafer Dec. 18, 2015

Pulitzer Prize-winner Donald Margulies weaves together nostalgia, music and merriment in this new seasonal classic. A holiday show for people of all ages and all faiths, CONEY ISLAND CHRISTMAS introduces us to Shirley Abramowitz, a young Jewish girl who (much to her immigrant parents' exasperation) is cast in the school's Christmas pageant. As Shirley, now much older, recounts the memorable story to her great-granddaughter, the play captures a timeless and universal tale of the Jewish immigrant experience during the holidays.

Directed by April Olt and Sonda Rose Staley.

Performances run December 12 - 20. Gallery Players, 1125 College Ave., Columbus, Ohio 43209. Please visit www.jccgalleryplayers.org to purchase tickets and get specific showtimes.
