Welcome Letter

Dear Valued Guests,

Happy holidays from all of us at Downtown Cabaret Children’s Theatre.
The holidays have always been a very special time for us at the Cabaret.
Not only is it the time we have offered some of our favorite and most
memorable Cabaret Children’s shows, including A Christmas Carol,
Annie and Rudolph and the Reindeer Games, but it is also a time we get to
remind families about what makes the holidays so important: each other.

This year we are proud to present our original adaptation of Frosty the
Snowman. This show has all the fun, comedy and magic audiences have
come to expect (as well as a friendly enchanted snowman), but it also
reminds us that the holiday season is more than that. It is about the
season of giving, of thinking of each other and of loving one another
despite our differences. This show reminds us that the holiday is about
more than just presents, decorations and vacations, and we want to
thank you for joining us in sharing that message with your family and
friends. Thank you for coming to the Cabaret and supporting the magic
of live theatre this holiday season.

Thank you for bringing your families and friends to share an experience
with us. From all of us to all of you, we wish you a very happy holiday and
we hope to see you again next year! We hope you have a great time, and
we’ll see you again soon!

All Our Best,

Phill Hill

Artistic Director
Cabaret Children’s Theatre

Lance is not a “princess type”, therefore, over the past 14 seasons,
he’s had few opportunities to play the title character. Others have
been Claus in The Life and Adventures of Santa Claus, Frankie in
Frankenstein, Beast in Beauty and the Beast and Willy Wonka. Thanks,
Sean, for number five. Love to Rob and the girls...I’ll be home soon.

Chelsea Dacey Trudy

Chelsea is #blessed to be back! Recent roles include Ghost of
Christmas Past (Christmas Carol), Heidi (Sleepy Hollow), Amber
(Hairspray), Daisy Buchanan (The Great Gatsby), Charlie (Willy
Wonka). Be sure to check out the education department here for her
classes and make sure to come back and see her as Nancy in Fancy
Nancy! Peace and love to all! chelseadacey.com
