2 TIME Tony Winner John Cullum joins Irish Rep & company for the holiday classic, A Child’s Christmas in Wales.

On that legendary “Snowy Christmas Day” songs are sung, cakes are gobbled up, ghost stories are whispered, and wild Indians roam the City Park!
While the uncles, stuffed with pudding, nap and bellow on the parlor couch. 

by Dylan Thomas
directed by Charlotte Moore

Reviews

  • They sing as though they're welcoming you into their living room and you can't help but smile. More than any one moment, though, A Child's Christmas is a wash of emotion, transporting us to the white dusted mountains of the famously tragic poet's youth when he was just a boy who built snow castles."
