(Link)Stained Glass Theatre of Mid-Missouri

A Laura Ingalls Wilder Christmas
by Laurie Brooks
December 02-December 18

Produced by special arrangement with The Dramatic Publishing Company of Woodstock, Illinois

It is their poorest winter ever, the crops have been devastated by locusts and the family must make a difficult decision that could change the family dynamics. This original play presents the poignant story of the “missing” two years in the life of the Ingalls family – the only substantial period that Laura chose not to write about in her Little House books. Told with period songs, humor and depth of character, A Laura Ingalls Wilder Christmas tells a story of healing that celebrates the importance of enduring family bonds.
