Beautiful Star: An Appalachian Nativity

Beautiful Star:
An Appalachian Nativity

A Seasonal Celebration
written and directed by Preston Lane
original music by Laurelyn Dossett

November 28 – December 21, 2008

Come home for the holidays.
After two seasons of sold out performances and record-breaking runs, Beautiful Star’s Rev. Roy Ledbetter and the Open Heart Community Fellowship congregation return once again to bring the Christmas story to life with down home laughter, toe-tapping music and a tug at the heart. See why critics call this new holiday tradition “perfect family fare…[that] will lighten your heart and put a lump in your throat,” (Greensboro News & Record) and “the best show I've seen in this or any holiday season.” (The Charlotte Observer)

Running time: Approximately 2 hours, plus one intermission.
