The Shadow
CLIFTON FORGE — A new Christmas play is coming to town.
“Exchange of Gifts” will be presented on Sunday, Dec. 15, at 2 p.m. at the Historic Masonic Theatre.
The show will be performed by 57 Hours Productions, the production arm of the award-winning Virginia playwright Dwayne Yancey, whose work has been produced in 14 different countries.
“Exchange of Gifts” tells the story of three international students who find themselves snowbound in an American airport, unable to get home for Christmas. Over the course of the play, each learns something about themselves that changes the direction of their life.
The cast consists of Lyndsey Hanks, Kaiya Hoagland and Olivia Hunter, all veterans of the Roanoke theatre scene. The show is directed by Kerry Plank, another Roanoke theatre veteran.
The show is appropriate for all ages, although younger children may have some difficulty understanding.
Tickets are $12 for adults, and $10 for students and seniors. Box seats are $20 each.
Tickets may be purchased online at www.historicmasonictheatre.com, by calling the theatre box office at 862- 5655, or at the ticket booth prior to the show.
