Christmas Belles
A Comedy by Jessie Jones, Nicholas Hope, Jamie Wooten
Directed by Julie Owen
From the writers of last season’s A Doublewide, Texas Christmas, we bring you this season’s holiday fare. It’s Christmas-time in the small town of Fayro, Texas, and the Futrelle Sisters – Frankie, Twink and Honey Raye – are not exactly in a festive mood. A cranky Frankie is weeks overdue with her second set of twins. Twink, recently jilted and bitter about it, is in jail for inadvertently burning down half the town. And hot-flash-suffering Honey Raye is desperately trying to keep the Tabernacle of the Lamb’s Christmas Program from spiraling into chaos.
Produced by special arrangement with Dramatist Play Service Inc.
