A.D. Players to present Christmas performance

Grace Community Fellowship will be hosting the A.D. Players National Touring Company at a Ladies Christmas drama and dessert party at 6:30 p.m. Monday, Dec. 3 at Grace Community Fellowship located at 1900 E. Boling Highway in Wharton.

The A.D. Players will perform "Halos and Holly" which is a collection of short Christmas plays written by Jeannette Clift George.

Halos and Holly ranges from the solemn to the silly and back again. It compares contemporary Christmas dilemmas such as shopping for a spouse, shopping with a spouse, or just shopping with sometimes warm or poignant reminders of what the first Christmas might have been like.

There will be four short plays and it will run for 1 hour. There will be a 5 minute introduction with the following plays woven together:

"The Card Catalogue" - Trying to find the perfect Christmas card can be a challenge, even for the best of Marriages.

"Shopping" - A woman secretly instructs a store clerk in helping her husband not to buy the wrong gift this year.

"The Journey" - A behind-the scenes look at the journey of a lifetime as a group of wise men travel to find the newborn King.

"Why the Bells Chimed" - A new adaptation of the old Spanish folk story where two children learn about gifts, family and sacrifice on their way to church on Christmas eve long ago.

Tickets are $10 per person. For tickets or questions call Lisa Hathway at (979) 332-3835 or the church office at (979) 332-3999.
