A journey back 100 years finds families practicing many of the same traditions and values they do today. Memories invites you to visit a simpler time in “An L.M. Montgomery Christmas,” playing December 5-20, 2015. This holiday musical is a collaboration of two stories written by Lucy M. Montgomery, best known for her “Anne of Green Gables” series. Together, they tell the tale of a trainload of passengers setting forth to their holiday destinations. When a blizzard derails their plans, they must come together to find the true meaning of Christmas.

Director Ralph Maffongelli describes it as an “emotionally-satisfying and heart-warming narrative… guaranteed to evoke the Christmas spirit in all who see it.”
