New London Barn offers two virtual shows

The New London Barn Playhouse is thrilled to announce two holiday performances to be held virtually in December. First, on Dec. 5, the New London Barn Playhouse will present a live radio production of Miracle on 34th Street. The broadcast will premiere live at 6 p.m. locally on WSCS 90.9 and on their website classicalwscs.org and replay Dec. 6 at 6 p.m.

Also happening this holiday season is the New London Barn Playhouse’s Education team producing their first-ever virtual holiday production: The 12 Days of Christmas by Renee Calarco. The performance will be streamed live on YouTube on Dec. 12 at 2 p.m., featuring wonderful young actors and designers ages 6 to 18. With Christmas fast approaching, Shirley the Christmas Partridge must gather everyone for the annual singing of “The Song.” She sets off on a quest to find all the participants, but soon finds trouble with easily distracted turtle doves, swimming swans who have all gone on vacation, and the evil Christmas Hoarder on a mission to steal the ancient golden rings. This delightful play gives a fun spin on the story behind the classic song!

These performances are free and open to the public. In lieu of buying a ticket, please consider making a tax-deductible donation to the barn.
