A Paramount Production
The Paramount Theatre, which has many ties to McMurry, has a show coming up worth checking out:
Paramount Productions presents the return of “A Texas Christmas Carol,” an original adaptation of the classic Dickens story by Paramount Artistic Director Barry Smoot. This Texas-themed take on the traditional story is billed as “a Christmas tale of greed, ghosts, and really spicy chili.” It features an ensemble cast of actors each playing multiple roles, assisted by an alt/folk/bluegrass band that adds traditional and original music to the tale. This is certainly an uplifting and inspirational holiday theatrical event for the entire family.
December 16-18, 7:30pm
Tickets are general admission at $15 for adults and $10 for students, seniors, military, and children.
To order tickets by phone call our business office weekdays from 9 am to 5 pm at (325) 676-9620.
