A Christmas Pudding

A Christmas celebration told in songs, stories, poems and tales by Charles Dickens, Mark Twain, Frank McCourt, Emily Dickinson, Mollie Birney, A. J. Carothers, David Birney, George Washington, Rainer Maria Rilke, Lord Tennyson and many others, mixed with a host of Christmas music from Mozart to traditional carols and holiday songs.

This piece provides a perfect evening to warm hearts, stir memories and laughter. A joyful introduction to the holiday.

"David Birney's adaptation is an evening of song, poetry, comic and otherwise, and stories that celebrate the spiritual dimensions of the season...from a diverse array of classic and modern texts, punctuated with musical interludes...[The] tone ranges from lighthearted whimsy to solemn reflection...humorous, wry...lighthearted...This is definitely a Christmas show...one [whose] openhearted sentiments send a message that's reassuringly inclusive."
