Imagine West Texas in 1955. A struggling young widow and her three ranch hands are trying to come up with “Somethin’ Special for Christmas” for her young son with the help of his school teacher, while a nefarious neighbor is plotting how to buy her ranch.
This Generations Theater Company production is also a dinner theater catered by Smokin’ Gingers, a popular local food truck. The play opens in Junction City on November 28 and runs for two week-ends through Dec. 6, with evening and Saturday matinee shows.
ASL interpretation for the Deaf is provided at the Nov. 29 matinee and the Dec. 4 evening show.
Come have dinner, dessert, and show, or just dessert and show, or just show! It’s all fun. For ticket information visit Generations Theater Company’s website: jctheater.com, and click on “Events”.
