The Story:

Diane Diamond, the head copywriter at OTooles Department Store in Downtown Akron, Ohio, is hiding a secret this year shes scheduled to direct OTooles Annual Christmas Spectacular with the help of her friends -- sarcastic art director, Roger Hamlin, and the energetic piano player from Mens shoes, Benjamin Bevo Beaverman, who is in love with her. The mere 48 hours they have to launch the production becomes a wild race to find the talent, get the show up on its feet, and celebrate the holiday season, while trying to avoid the stores VP, the bitter Irene Richardson, who wants to shut the whole thing down. Our team, along with some of the craziest acts in Northeastern Ohio, is somehow able to pull it off in one of the most delightful Christmas shows ever.

Part backstage musical, part Christmas celebration, part human comedy, its an event for the whole family filled with unforgettable characters and memorable songs. Its been described as A CHRISTMAS STORY meets THE BEST CHRISTMAS PAGEANT EVER. Winner of GTC New Play Initiative, CHRISTMAS IN AKRON is destined to be a perennial.
