Beautiful Star:
An Appalachian Nativity
A Seasonal Celebration
by Preston Lane
original music by Laurelyn Dossett
November 27 – December 23, 2009
Come home for the holidays.
The best tales are the ones worth repeating. Returning for the fourth and final season of celebration, Reverend Ledbetter and the Open Heart Community Fellowship gather again for their rendition of the Christmas story, with down home laughter, toe-tapping music and a tug at the heartstrings. Come experience the joy and wonder that have made Beautiful Star the biggest hit in Triad Stage’s history.
“Whether you’re rolling with laughter at Lane’s offbeat shepherd’s story...or thrilling to Mary’s...musical musings about her mystical pregnancy, this show leaves you with the same transcendent feeling that must have overcome audiences of the medieval mystery plays.”
–Classical Voice of North Carolina
