Theater Works is proud to have two great children productions this holiday season.  Puppet Works debuts with SAVING SANTA on December 4th at 10 a.m. and THE LITTLEST ANGEL begins on December 3rd at 7:00 p.m.  With these two great performances families are offered a wonderful opportunity to introduce their young children to the performing arts.  SAVING SANTA is an amusing family show that tries to prove the age old question, "Is Santa really real?" and tickets are only $6 / person.  THE LITTLEST ANGEL is a timeless Christmas story of a little angel who is transformed from a celestial pest to the toast of the Heavenly Host.  THE LITTLEST ANGEL performs from December 4th - 19th and SAVING SANTA performs from December 4th - December 24th.

Puppet Works' SAVING SANTA is ideal for children ages 3 and up to enjoy an intimate performance.  It's Christmas Eve and when the possibility of the Secret existence of Santa is threatened to be exposed by some meddling kids it's up to a group of clever talking presents to save the day. This fun holiday adventure is full of comic hijinx involving quirky elves, a cookie loving Santa, a Dad who loves Christmas, and other adorable characters. The puppets and puppeteers encourage the children to interact and ask questions with a talk back following each performance. 

THE LITTLEST ANGEL is brought magically to life in this humorous, touching, and, above all, inspirational musical.  Filled with melody and mirth, the story follows the adventures - and misadventures - of the Littlest Angel. This classic musical is an ideal holiday gift for both cast and audience.  This musical is based on the book by Charles Tazewell; book and lyrics by Joseph Robinette; and music by Diane Leslie
