ON BETHEL ROAD: A Christmas Story
A Dramedy 3W / 3M + Offstage Voices Approximate Playing Time: 90 Min.
Is Margaret crazy or does she really see her deceased husband, Phillip when her daughter Pauline and Pauline’s soon-to-be fiancé, David, catch her talking into thin air? And what about Phillip’s best friend, Roy? He seems to enjoy hanging around if only to torture Phillip about losing a prize bluegill fishing contest years before. Pauline, a strong-willed businesswoman, won’t be home for Christmas. It’s the first time since both Phillip and son, Jerry, have been gone. Margaret struggles with a secret that has torn her apart since Jerry’s tragic accident on Bethel Road. On top of that, Sandra and Pauline seem to have taken over all the decision-making in the house, from moving Phillip’s rocking chair to another room and replacing it with an electric lift chair to remodeling the bathroom, tearing out her beloved tub and installing a walk-in shower. Add Sandra insisting she use a walker and practically shoving tea down her throat when all she really wants is coffee…black!... and Margaret is ready to blow her top. But with love and understanding, and Phillip’s compassion and forgiveness, Margaret is able to find peace and comfort in time to share her personal re-telling of the classic Christmas story reminiscent of her childhood days.
