Just four days before the Family Christmas Show was to open, the Off Pitt Street Theater Company received the news of the stateâs new COVID-19 occupancy restrictions. Under the new protocols, the scheduled show could not have an audience and only 13 people would be allowed in the theaterâs building at one time.
âInstead of throwing away or postponing months of preparation, Off Pitt Street Theater Company decided to switch gears and produce the fifth Annual Family Christmas Show as an online movie with two versions,â Director Dawn Ziviello said.
Originally, the play had two different casts to allow every actor a chance to play a lead role. Each version of the movie will feature a different cast.
