MIRACLE ON 34TH STREET

Directed by Pat Hill
Performances November 28 – December 21, 2025.

 This is a tale to believe in — the kind of story that reminds us what the Christmas season is truly about. It brings to life a world we all long for, where love, kindness, and generosity of spirit are their own rewards. Miracle on 34th Street remains one of the most heartwarming holiday classics of all time.
    By a happy twist of fate, Kris Kringle, a kindly old man from a retirement home, finds himself hired to play Santa at Macy’s. His genuine goodwill and honesty soon charm shoppers across New York City — especially when he sends parents to other stores to find the perfect toys for their children. But when Macy’s vocational counselor decides Kris is delusional and arranges to have him committed to Bellevue Psychiatric Hospital, a courtroom drama unfolds to determine his sanity — and the very existence of Santa Claus himself.
    At the heart of the story is one little girl’s belief in magic. Come rediscover the wonder and joy of childhood faith and imagination.
