The Christmas Spirit – press release

The comedy The Christmas Spirit at Burien Actors Theatre

Burien Actors Theatre’s (BAT’s) production of the comedy The Christmas Spirit is a  touching and hilarious look at what makes life worth living.

Performances run November 29 through December 22, 2019.

The Burien Actors Theatre production, written by Frederick Stroppel, features specialty drinks themed to the show and plenty of free on-site parking, plus BAT’s famous opening night party.

THE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT 

When Death arrives to whisk Julia Dowling into the afterlife, Julia instead fast-talks him into a nonexistent Christmas party. As Julia scrambles to bring her estranged family together on Christmas Day, old resentments surface, new connections are made, and even Death feels the magic of the Christmas spirit.

The show contains a little adult language, including the “G”, “J”, “F” and “D” words. BAT’s policy is to inform audiences of content but to let parents, guardians and teachers make decisions that they feel are appropriate for the youth and teens in their care.

Performances are Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m., and Sunday matinees at 2 p.m. at Burien Actors Theatre, 14501 4th Ave. S.W. in Burien.
