Clague Playhouse will present Dan Goggin’s comedy "Nuncrackers: The Nunsense Christmas Musical" as the second production of its 88th season.

The Little Sisters of Hoboken are back! The nuns of Mount St. Helen are preparing for their first Christmas television show in the convent basement, but when things don’t go as planned, mayhem ensues. Packed with parodies of favorite holiday carols, this light-hearted romp offers a high-spirited spoof of all things Christmas.

"Nuncrackers" is directed by Kim Mihalik, with musical direction by Jayne Kacik. The cast includes Ian Atwood, Marthan Brown, Grace Davis, Kate Miller, Sarah Rish, Philip Sutherland, Abby Twining and Susan Weber.

The production runs from Nov. 13 through Dec. 13 on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. Tickets are $16 for adults, $15 for seniors (60+), and $10 for students (with valid ID), and may be purchased by calling the box office at 440-331-0403 Wednesday through Saturday from 1–6 p.m.

During this production, the playhouse will also hold its popular fundraiser, the sixth annual “Jewelry Heist.” Friends of the theatre have generously donated beautiful semi-precious jewelry, sterling silver and hand-crafted objects which will be sold in the lobby. Purchases will not only support the theatre, but also help you start your holiday shopping! This year’s donations include many high-quality items, so bring your checkbook!
