| Tim Dixon preparing for his role as Kris Kringle aka Santa |
Rosebud, Alberta
(November 1, 2016)
When Kris Kringle accidentally gets a job working as a Santa for Macy's, his unique approach to customer service -- referring parents to rival stores for hard-to-find toys -- ruffles the feathers of the dollar-driven Macy's management. Seen as deluded and dangerous by Macy's staff counselor, a plot to have Kris sent to Bellevue Psychiatric Hospital ensues and he ends up in a court competency hearing. Especially at stake is one little girl's belief in Santa. Supported by six-year-old Susan and Susan's attorney neighbour, Fred, they fight to prove Kris is the true Santa, giving Susan and kids all over the most precious gift - something to believe in.
In Rosebud Theatre's upcoming Miracle on 34th Street, Tim Dixon takes on the role of Kris Kringle - Santa Claus to be exact - and it's a role he doesn't take lightly. Upon learning that he would be joining the cast in Rosebud, Tim began preparing his beard and his character almost a full year in advance.
Come experience Christmas in Rosebud. A festive buffet meal with live dinner music in the Haskayne-Kenney Mercantile, gift shopping at Rosebud Gifts and Crafts, and an engaging, heartwarming performance on the Opera House Stage will bring the magic of the season alive.
Saturday matinees are already SOLD OUT. Book your family's tickets now to avoid disappointment and kick-start the Christmas season with a trip to Rosebud.
Praise for Miracle on 34th Street
"This is a tale that we want to believe in, what we want Christmas to be all about, really."
- The Santa Cruz Sentinel
