SUMMARY:A CIVIL WAR CHRISTMAS: AN AMERICAN MUSICAL CELEBRATION by Paula Vogel
DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:Event Name: A CIVIL WAR CHRISTMAS: AN AMERICAN MUSICAL CELEBRATION by Paula Vogel=0D=0AEvent Url: http://www.artsboston.org/event/detail/45559=0D=0AEvent Date Begin: 2009-11-13=0D=0AEvent Date End: 2009-12-13=0D=0A=0D=0AIt is Christmas Eve, 1864 - the coldest Washington, D.C. has seen in years. As the national conflict threatens to divide the country forever, President and Mrs. Lincoln prepare for the holiday, a young rebel appeals to a Union blacksmith for mercy, and an escaped slave searches for her missing daughter as she journeys to freedom. Their stories and others interweave into a moving tapestry of collective American experience in this new play with music by Pulitzer Prize winner Paula Vogel (How I Learned to Drive). This instant family classic is the perfect alternative to Dickens' A Christmas Carol  - a distinctly American holiday event that will feature artists from throughout the Boston community as well as local choirs singing before each show.=0D=0A='Holiday entertainment of the most deeply satisfying kind! Ambitious in scope and generous in spirit. An enduring piece of theatre for Christmases yet to come.' - The Boston Globe=0D=0A=0D=0AStart time:Fri. 11/13 @ 8pm=0D=0A=Sat. 11/14 @ 8pm=0D=0A=Sun. 11/15 @ 7pm=0D=0A=Tues. 11/17 @ 7:30pm*=0D=0A=Wed. 11/18 @ 7pm - Opening Night=0D=0A=Thurs. 11/19 @ 7:30pm*=0D=0A=Fri. 11/20 @ 8pm=0D=0A=Sat. 11/21 @ 2pm & 8pm=0D=0A=Sun. 11/22 @ 2pm & 7pm=0D=0A=Mon. 11/23 @ 7:30pm=0D=0A=Tues. 11/24 @ 7:30pm*=0D=0A=Fri. 11/27 @ 2pm & 7:30pm=0D=0A=Sat. 11/28 @ 2pm & 8pm=0D=0A=Sun. 11/29 @ 2pm=0D=0A=Tues. 12/1 @ 7:30pm=0D=0A=Wed. 12/2 @ 7:30pm=0D=0A=Thurs. 12/3 @ 7:30pm=0D=0A=Fri. 12/4 @ 8pm=0D=0A=Sat. 12/5 @ 2pm & 8pm=0D=0A=Sun. 12/6 @ 2pm*=0D=0A=Tues. 12/8 @ 7:30pm=0D=0A=Wed. 12/9 @ 2pm* & 7:30pm=0D=0A=Thurs. 12/10 @ 7:30pm=0D=0A=Fri. 12/11 @ 8pm=0D=0A=Sat. 12/12 @ 2pm & 8pm=0D=0A=Sun. 12/13 @ 2pm=0D=0A==0D=0A=*Related special events FREE with the purchase of a ticket:=0D=0A==0D=0A=Tues. 11/17 @ 7:30pm* - Playwright's Forum=0D=0A==0D=0A=Thurs. 11/19 @ 7:30pm* - Out & About Club: G.L.B.T. audience members are invited to a post-show party at the theatre.=0D=0A==0D=0A=Tues. 11/24 @ 7:30pm* - Actor's Forum: Participating members of the cast take questions after the performance.=0D=0A==0D=0A=Sun. 12/6 @ 2pm* - Humanities Forum: A lively post-performance session on the historical and literary context of the show. =0D=0A==0D=0A=Wed. 12/9 @ 2pm* - Actor's Forum: Participating members of the cast take questions after the performance.
