Possum Point Players to Hold Saturday Night Silent Auctions During Run CHRISTMAS BELLES Run, 12/6-15

The Possum Point Players are presenting Christmas Belles, a Southern holiday comedy by well-known playwrights Jessie Jones, Nicholas Hope and Jamie Wooten, along with their Third Annual Silent Auction. The holiday comedy runs through Sunday, December 15.

The Possum Point Players' Third Annual Silent Auction will also be held during the Saturday show (December 14) of Christmas Belles. Preview and pre-bidding will be held during the Friday show (December 13). The highest bids are awarded on Saturday. New and different items will be up for bid on this second weekend.

Set in Fayro, Texas, Christmas Belles centers on the three Futrelle sisters - Frankie, Twink and Honey Raye - and an annual church Christmas program that spins hilariously out of control. It is about a journey through a misadventure-filled Christmas Eve - squabbling sisters, family secrets, a surly Santa, a vengeful sheep, and a reluctant Elvis impersonator. It's absurd, it's quirky, and it's definitely funny. But at the core, it's about family, love and acceptance - what the season is all about.

Show dates are 7:30 PM Friday, December 13, and Saturday, December 14, and 2 PM Sunday, December 15, at Possum Hall, 441 Old Laurel Rd, Georgetown, DE 19947. Tickets are $23 for adults, $22 for students and seniors. Call (302) 856-4560 or visit http://www.possumpointplayers.org/.
