by Mark W. Sasse (Author)

29 plays Three complete shows

These 29 plays comprise three complete Christmas shows - Tales of Wonder I, II, III - which were performed by the RLT Players at the Penang Performing Arts Center from 2015-2017. Audiences from all walks of life rolled-over in laughter and teared up with emotion as these funny & poignant plays were brought to life to high acclaim and sold-out shows.

And now, for the first time ever, they are available to you

These unique and gripping plays will be equally at home in a community theater, on a school stage, or part of a church's festive celebration. From the gripping tale in the WWI trenches, to a modern take on the composing of Silent Night, to a revised version of the 12 Days of Christmas, to Mrs. Claus conspiring against the elves, to kids sledding and making snow angels, these nostalgic and powerful plays will allow people to wonder in awe at the most magical time of the year.
