'Twas the Night Before the Night Before Christmas

COMEDY. Inspired by the poem by Clement Clarke Moore. ‘Twas the night before Christmas, and there isn’t one present under the Perkadilly’s tree. Wait! It’s the night before the night before Christmas. No wonder Santa hasn’t arrived! The family’s two children and their pet mouse, dog, and cat are all relieved. But when two of Santa’s elves arrive to check their lists to see who has been naughty or nice, the Perkadilly children and pets realize they’ve got a few too many checks on the naughty side. However, all is not lost. They have 24 hours to perform good deeds before Santa’s elves return to check their lists twice. Adorable characters abound in this delightful holiday comedy. A Christmas carol may be included, if desired.
