For the holidays, RLT presents a Christmas classic. When the Herdman kids show up at church for the free snacks and suddenly take over the Christmas Pageant, the other kids are shocked.  But Christmas magic is all around and the Herdmans, who had never heard the Christmas story before, start to reimagine it in their own way. This year’s pageant is like no other, but maybe that’s what makes it so special. 

​

This charming family show is adapted from the best-selling book and has become a holiday favorite that features plenty of great roles for children and adults, a few favorite Christmas carols, a lot of laughs, and a whole lot of heart!

Our final show of the 2019-2020 season is Leading Ladies, the hilarious farce by award-winning playwright Ken Ludwig.

 

English Shakespearean actors Jack and Leo find themselves so down on their luck that they are performing "Scenes from Shakespeare" on the Moose Lodge circuit in the Amish country of Pennsylvania. When they hear that Florence, an older woman  in York, PA is about to die and leave her fortune to her two long lost English nephews, they resolve to pass themselves off as her beloved relatives and get the cash. The trouble is, when they get to York, they find out that the relatives aren't nephews, but nieces! Romantic entanglements abound, especially when Leo falls head-over-petticoat in love with Florence’s vivacious niece!
