Intriguing Theatre Critique by Christopher Soden: Performing Arts explored and reviewed, with an eye towards the astonishing.

🎄 “A dash of flour, a pinch of stage fright, and a whole lot of love.” ❄️ Shy small-town baker, Janine Massey has a secret crush on Alex Hendricks, her best friend and Winterhaven’s handsome drama teacher. When Alex is cast as Mr. Darcy in the town’s Christmas play, Janine reluctantly steps into Elizabeth Bennet’s shoes—and possibly into true love. As rehearsals heat up and snowflakes fall, Janine and Alex discover a chemistry that goes beyond the stage. But with a big-city theater group eyeing Alex's talent and a sophisticated talent scout determined to whisk him away to stardom, Janine must decide whether to confess her feelings or let him pursue his dreams. This heartwarming tale of small-town charm and holiday magic is perfect for fans of sweet Christmas movies and anyone who believes in the power of love, hot cocoa, and cookies.
