EL PASEO ARTS FOUNDATION - SEASON 21

Dashing Through The Snow

Aa comedy by the writing team of Jones, Hope and Wooten, who wrote The Savannah Sipping Society and The Sweet Deliah Swim Club. It is scheduled for performance on December 1, 2, and 3. It’s four days before Christmas in the tiny town of Tinsel, Texas, and a colorful parade of eccentric guests arrive at the Snowflake Inn and deck the halls with holiday hilarity. Trina, the harried yet upbeat innkeeper of this B & B has more than she can handle coping with these nuttier-than-a-fruitcake lodgers. Hoyt and his sister Donna Jo make the mistake of trying to end a thirty-year feud between their curmudgeonly aunts, Ennis and Della, with side splitting results. Ainsley and Lenoa, self-involved actors from a lower-than-low- budget touring production of A Christmas Carol, descend on the Inn to fulfill a promise, leaving comedic chaos in their wake. Add to this Yuletide mayhem an ill-advised romantic rendezvous between Mrs. Claus and one of Santa’s elves, a demanding guest who refuses to leave, not to mention a tipsy housekeeper, and it’s clear it will take more than a kiss under the mistletoe to keep Trina’s spirits merry and bright. But a spur-of-

the-moment Christmas Eve wedding hat brings together the fabulous Futrelle sisters – Honey Raye, Twink, Frankie, and Rhonda Lynn – and their best friend Raynerd, takes a surprising and delightful turn that leads to a laugh-‘til-your-sides-ache climax, changing all their lives forever. You’ll swear this family-friendly Jones Hope Wooten Christmas comedy is more fun than a joyride in a one-horse open sleigh! The cast requires 2 males and 6 females.

Auditons: August 20 and 22
