Roswell Youth Theatre Presents 'A Charlie Brown Christmas'

ROSWELL, GA — The classic animated television special, “A Charlie Brown Christmas,” will come to life in a stage adaptation presented next month by Roswell Youth Theatre.

'Tis the season to celebrate everyone’s favorite Peanuts pals, as they dig past the commercialized gimmicks of presents and decorations to rediscover the true meaning of Christmas.

When Charlie Brown complains about the overwhelming materialism he sees among everyone during the Christmas season, Lucy suggests that he become director of the school Christmas pageant. Charlie Brown accepts, but this proves to be a frustrating endeavor. Through a pageant and a spindly tree, Charlie Brown and friends bring the holiday spirit back to life for families once again!

Roswell Youth Theatre will present “A Charlie Brown Christmas” at 7 p.m. Dec. 14, 7 p.m. Dec. 15 and 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. Dec. 16 at the Roswell Cultural Arts Center at 950 Forrest Street.

Tickets are $12, and are available at the theatre 1 hour prior to the start of the show or online www.roswellgov.com/ryt prior to show day. For more information on the show, please call Leslie Kelley at 770-641-3987 or email lkelley@roswellgov.com.

Roswell Youth Theatre offers performance opportunities for student actors ages 8-18 and is under the direction of Artistic Director Leslie Kelley.
