A trial is being conducted in Candy Cane Courthouse and your audience is the jury!
To the shock of everyone, young Jim Dandy has called Christmas spirit ’a lot of nonsense.’ Facing a Christmas courtroom, Jim intends to defend himself. He has his task cut out for him as a colorful parade of Christmas personalities try to prove him wrong, including reindeer-in-training, an angel from atop a Christmas tree, wise men and holiday shoppers. Even Mrs. Cratchit and Tiny Tim make an appearance. It’s up to the Toy Maker to discover why Jim is acting so strangely. The answer involves a teddy bear and some bad kids who aren’t so bad after all. You’ll be surprised at how the verdict is reached. Naturally, Santa Claus makes an appearance and the show ends with everyone singing ’Jingle Bells.’
If you’re looking for something different, this is the ideal holiday play. Not only is it delightful and entertaining, it is also easy to perform with a role for everybody.
