A VERY WILLIAMSTON CHRISTMAS Comes to Williamston Theatre

Mid-Michigan’s award-winning professional theatre company, Williamston Theatre, will celebrate the holiday season with the return of A Very Williamston Christmas by Robert Hawlmark. Performances for this production begin Thursday, November 14 and run through Sunday, December 29. Tickets are now on sale.

This Hawlmark original is back by popular demand!  A professional woman running in the fast lane of the big city corporate world journeys back to her small town on a mission for her boss.  When she runs into a handsome acquaintance from high school, she’s forced to evaluate her life and priorities.  Hot coca, light parades, and romance collide.  Hilarity ensues. A Very Williamston Christmas is a holiday movie parody that will make your season complete!

Original A Very Williamston Christmas cast members Dani Cochrane (Bright Half Life, On the Market) and Emily Sutton-Smith (Maytag Virgin, A Very Williamston Christmas) are joined this year by Patrick Loos (On the Market, Popcorn Falls) and newcomer to the Williamston Theatre stage Nick Yocum.
