This holiday season take time out to remember when; “If you had a dollar, it was more money than you knew what to do with; when if you had an hour to play, it seemed like forever, and when the very best time in the whole world had to be Christmas.” Step back – look back and enjoy Pat Cook’s funny and loving Yuletide Miracle.”
(Director’s take)
“Dad’s Christmas Miracle” is a holiday experience, a time to enjoy getting into mischief with you friends and tolerate your family during ‘the season.’ It’s the memories of Conner Murphy as a 12 year old with dreams of a go-cart for Christmas. It’s what really happens after a bad report card, a Christmas play that goes wrong all while a Greek chorus keeps the festivities moving.
