David and I were talking the other day, and he mentioned he would like to see more plays like we did last year. An email for 2 Christmas classics appeared in my mailbox. I showed the email to David, and he said he would like to see both events.
For me, since I haven’t ever seen The Nutcracker, I wouldn’t mind seeing it although I am more of a Peanuts Fan since I have my own Charlie. I can’t wait till we can go and see A Charlie Brown Christmas. I hope my sister can go with us as I know she would enjoy it as much as I will.
The performance runs approximately one hour
