  3. O. HENRY'S CHRISTMAS TALES


ELTC's artistic director Gayle Stahlhuth has been adapting and performing Christmas stories since 2005, and this year is no exception. She’s received praise from reviewers and audience alike for her unique, tour-de-force, memorized storytelling style.
These tales take place in New York and have to do with money. Della needs to buy a present in “The Gift of the Magi” and only has $1.87. A kindly old gent spends $1.30 on dinner for someone he barely knows in "Two Thanksgiving Day Gentlemen." A millionaire offers $100 to anyone who will return his daughter's rag doll in "Compliments of the Season." Bobby Gillian inherits $1,000 in "One Thousand Dollars," and wonders how to spend it.

Ages: age 10 on up
