As the holiday season wraps the world in a warm embrace, Thingamajig Theatre Company’s production of “All Is Calm: The Christmas Truce of 1914” has captivated audiences at the Pagosa Springs Center for the Arts.
The historical and theatrical piece, playing through Dec. 29, has seen an incredible run of sold-out shows, spreading the holiday spirit and fostering a renewed hope amongst its viewers for peace across the globe.
“All Is Calm” transports audiences back to the trenches of World War I, specifically to the Christmas of 1914, when an extraordinary event unfolded. Amidst the chaos and violence, soldiers from opposing sides laid down their arms and united in a spontaneous truce to celebrate Christmas together.
The production skillfully weaves together firsthand accounts, letters and period songs to recreate this historical moment of unity, showcasing the power of humanity even in the darkest of times.
The performance has resonated deeply with audiences, offering a poignant reminder of the universal desire for peace and goodwill.
Thingamajig Theatre Company’s commitment to bringing this historical event to life has resulted in a heartwarming and thought-provoking experience for all who attend.
With only a few days left until the final curtain call, theatre enthusiasts and those seeking the true meaning of the season are encouraged to secure their tickets to witness this unique production before it concludes on Dec. 29.
But the holiday spirit doesn’t end there.
Thingamajig Theatre Company invites you to ring in the new year with the Watchamawhozits Kids Camp performance of “The Lion King KIDS” on Dec. 30 and 31.
This enchanting production, featuring young and talented performers age 7-12, promises to be a joyous experience for the entire family.
Tickets for “The Lion King KIDS” are a mere $5. We advise purchasing tickets online in advance to ensure a seat, as past events have seen enthusiastic audiences turned away at the door.
