Charlie Brown, Snoopy, Linus and the rest of the Peanuts gang discover the true meaning of Christmas.

Director’s Note: As far back as I can remember, A Charlie Brown Christmas has always been one of my favorite Christmas shows. The lovable characters and the beautiful reminder of the true meaning of Christmas has always touched my heart. It has been pure joy to work with the talented young actors that bring this show to life. They have reminded me of how much I love working with children. Their kindness, excitement and generosity of spirit has enriched my holiday season as I am sure it will yours. I thank my adorable cast and marvelous crew that I have had the pleasure to work with on this production. Their talents and unselfish giving of their time amazed me and I am eternally grateful.

I would be remiss if I did not thank some people personally. To my husband, Michael, who always encourages and believes in me, thank you from the bottom of my heart. To Jenny Heller and Robin Gavriloff, thank you for being so good at what you do. I’m glad we were on this journey together. To Jamie Peterson who suggested that I direct this show, I thank you for asking me and for having faith in me. I have sincerely loved every minute. Lastly, to Sam Komay, I couldn’t have asked for a better person to share this experience with. I hope you, the audience, leaves the theater tonight with a little more Christmas spirit than you came with. Merry Christmas and God bless you all. ~ Karin Beveridge
