"This is a tale that we want to believe in, that creates a world we seem to desperately desire, free of the blatant commercialism that surrounds us, where love and decency and generosity of spirit are their own rewards. What we want Christmas to be all about, really." So writes the Santa Cruz Sentinel of this most heartwarming holiday story. By chance, Kris Kringle, an old man in a retirement home, gets a job working as Santa for Macy's. Kris unleashes waves of good will with Macy's customers and the commercial world of New York City by referring parents to other stores to find exactly the toy their child has asked for. Seen as deluded and dangerous by Macy's vocational counselor, who plots to have Kris shanghaied to Bellevue Psychiatric Hospital, Kris ends up in a court competency hearing. Especially at stake is one little girl's belief in Santa.

Anne of the 1000 Days
Anne of the 1000 Days
By Maxwell Anderson Directed by Kimberly Stevenson Performances November 12-21, 2021 Fridays/Saturdays 7pm; Sundays 3pm; MATURE THEMES, VIOLENCE In the historical background of the court of Henry, the story of Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn is a grand drama of love, deceit, and murder. Anne of the 1000 Days brings these most famous of Tudor characters to vivid life. QUICK STORY:
We need to delay our production of Anne of the 1000 Days until our next available time slot of February 4-20, 2022. If you already have tickets, you’ll be receiving an email through the address provided on your purchase. We have always had a full refund/exchange policy and it is still in effect. Through that email, you’ll be given an option to refund, exchange, or donate your ticket. LONG VERSION: One of the big lessons for us from the last 20 months is that the famous “the show MUST go on”… is a lie. Every theatre artist we know pushes through illness, pain, sleep deprivation, and heartache in order to make productions happen. We step in when there’s a drop or someone gets let go, we come early and stay late to run lines, work combat, help paint, or clean the restrooms. We do what needs done so the team succeeds. We say we’re fine… we’ll be okay… the show must go on. But at what cost? This art we adore doesn’t demand the toll we sometimes let it take. We are supposed to be in tech right now… as I write this. However, within the last dozen days, we’ve had 3 separate-but-serious (non-Covid) medical issues come up with our cast/production team. One surgery, one pneumonia, one severe reaction to new meds. The surgery issue had no choice but to drop. The other two insisted they could push through. Twenty months ago we would have. We would’ve simply recognized that it’s something all theatre artists do at some point. But again… it shouldn’t HAVE to be that way. For us at ESR, we’re wrapping our minds around postponing when things are too much. A tougher lesson to learn than you’d think, but pushing through has been engrained in us from our first moments spent in a theatre. We feel we have the best audiences around and have felt your love and support through the last 14 years. We hope you’ll understand our desire to stay healthy and safe, both mentally and physically, and know that the art we create for you will be all the better for giving our artists time to heal. Thank you so much and we look forward to seeing you at our next production, MIRACLE ON 34th STREET in December, as well as for ANNE OF THE 1000 DAYS in February. |
