What Is A Show-Stopping Christmas About?
According to The Futon Critic, Riley Burnett (Perez) is the artistic director of a theatre and is dealing with some obstacles. She is preparing to produce A Christmas Carol. Attending this event is a yearly holiday tradition for many families from this area.
However, Regina Caldwell (Keiller) the Scrooge-like owner of the Onota Theatre in Western Massachusetts has threatened to sell the property before anyone can say “break a leg.”
Now, Riley invokes the ghosts of Regina’s past, present, and future. Can their brand of Christmas magic change this grouch’s mind?
Meanwhile, Sam Palmer (McDonell), a big-time television star, has escaped Hollywood for the more calm Western Massachusetts.
Riley convinces him to portray Bob Cratchit, to add some excitement and media attention to the production.
Thanks to Sam and Riley, they find a way to make this production happen, fall in love, and perhaps even save Christmas. Or are the three ghosts using some Christmas magic there as well?
