Ringing in the holiday season, Theater at Monmouth will present “Every Christmas Story Ever Told…(and then some!)” — an annual holiday production with multiple showings between Nov. 26 and Dec. 4.

The play begins as yet another version of “A Christmas Carol” and takes “a wrong turn in Albuquerque” on the way to a Beloved Holiday Classic “Smackdown” between “A Christmas Carol” and “It’s a Wonderful Life.” Santa Claus, Rudolph (or in this case, Gustav), the Grinch and just about every other seasonal character makes an appearance in this performance.

“Every Christmas Story Ever Told… (and then some!)” features James Noel Hoban, Ian Kramer, and Grace Bauer; directed by Dawn McAndrews with set and lights by Jim Alexander, costume design by Elizabeth Rocha, and sound design by Elizabeth Nelson. “Every Christmas Story Ever Told…” is sponsored by Tex- Tech Industries. This production is best suited for those age 13 and up.

Tickets for all performances are $25. Performances take place Nov. 26-27 and Dec. 1-3 at 7:30 p.m., and Nov. 26-27 and Dec. 3-4 at 1 p.m. For reservations, contact the TAM Box Office at (207) 933-9999 or visit www.theateratmonmouth.or g.
