Event Details

A Charlie Brown Christmas Opens on the Mainstage: A WNC Premiere! A Charlie Brown Christmas is based on the beloved annual television special with Charlie Brown, Snoopy, Sally, Linus, Lucy and the entire Peanuts gang. The musical includes the classic songs “Christmas Time is Here,” “Skating,” “Linus and Lucy” and “Hark the Herald Angels Sing” – with arrangements by Vince Guaraldi. A perfect treat for the entire family! A Charlie Brown Christmas will be performed December 5-21, 2014 with performances Friday and Saturday nights at 7:30 pm and Sunday afternoons at 2:30 pm.  Tickets range from $12.00-$22.00 and are available online at www.ashevilletheatre.org, by phone at 828-254-1320 or in person at the ACT Box Office.

Saturdays at ACT presents The Gift of the Magi & Other Heartwarming Tales: On December 6, 2014, Bright Star Touring Theatre returns to headline Asheville Community Theatre’s Saturday family series.  The spirit of the holidays is celebrated in The Gift of the Magi & Other Heartwarming Tales. Learn about putting others first in O’Henry’s tale “The Gift of the Magi.” In the Indian folktale “The Drum,” the focus is on generosity and the power of giving. And this rendition of “Stone Soup” stresses the value of sharing and helping others. Perfect for the holidays! Performance begins at 10:00 am. All tickets are $5.00 and are available online at www.ashevilletheatre.org, by phone at 828-254-1320 or in person at the ACT Box Office.

The Santaland Diaries Opens in 35below: Bradshaw Call is back to star in this one-man-one-act that can only be described one way: crazy funny. When an out of work slacker takes a job as an elf in Macy’s Santaland, his hilarious observations of the shoppers and employees are much more naughty than nice. The Santaland Diaries will be performed December 11-20, 2014 with performances Thursday nights at 7:30 pm and Friday and Saturday nights at 7:30 pm and 9:30 pm.  All tickets are $15.00 and are available online at www.ashevilletheatre.org, by phone at 828-254-1320 or in person at the ACT Box Office.
