In The Pirates of Penzance, Frederic was as a child apprenticed to a band of tenderhearted, orphaned pirates by his nurse who, being hard of hearing, had mistaken her master's instructions to apprentice the boy to a pilot. Frederic, upon completing his 21st year, rejoices that he has fulfilled his indentures and is now free to return to respectable society. But it turns out that he was born on February 29 in leap year, and he remains apprenticed to the pirates until his 21st birthday. By the end of the operetta, the pirates, a Major General who knows nothing of military strategy, his large family of beautiful but unwed daughters, and the timid constabulary all contribute to a cacophony that can be silenced only by Queen Victoria's name.

White Christmas is a lighthearted, holiday musical stage version based on the 1954 Paramount movie classic of the same name. This fun and festive production by the New Braunfels Theatre Company features some of your favorite Irving Berlin songs such as "Happy Holiday", "Count Your Blessings", "Blue Skies" and of course... "White Christmas."

The musical tells the story of World War II veterans - Bob Wallace and Phil Davis - who become partners in a song-and-dance act after the war. The two follow a duo of beautiful singing sisters - Betty and Judy Haynes - who have a holiday gig at a lodge in Vermont, which happens to be owned by their former army commander, General Waverley.

Paul Morin provides stage and musical direction, with Jordon Cunningham serving as assistant musical director. Holly King and Jenny Wassom provide the choreography. The cast features Mario Luis Contreras, Jr., Tracey Nefford, Staci Morin, and Sara Brookes - with Linda Smith, Michael Hindman, Hannah Flynn and 27 additional performers.

This Christmas classic is sure to put you in the holiday spirit!
