SUMMARY:Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas 2026
DESCRIPTION:Coming back to Ferrum College for our fourth year\, this family favorite is sure to please with new surprises! \nFind tickets and details on performance dates and times at this link. \nLocation: Sale Theatre in the upper floor of Schoolfield Hall\, Ferrum College \nDirected by Emily Blankenship-Tucker \nIt’s three days before Christmas\, and Mayor Fox has just announced a Christmas talent contest with a grand prize of fifty dollars! Meanwhile\, times are tough for Ma and Emmet Otter since Pa passed away\, and winning that prize money would allow them to buy each other a secret Christmas gift. Emmet considers forming a jug-band with his friends\, but in order to do that he’ll have to put a hole in Ma’s washtub. The problem is\, Ma earns money by doing other folks’ laundry in the washtub. Ma thinks about hocking Pa’s old toolbox so she can make a costume for the contest\, but Emmet uses those tools to do odd jobs. As Christmas Eve and the talent contest quickly approach\, will Ma and Emmet sacrifice what little they have\, or will their Christmas wishes come true? \nAbout Us: \nAn optional dinner or lunch is served before the show in Franklin Hall next door\, and is served by the actors in the tradition of The Blue Ridge Dinner Theatre. Both Franklin Hall and Schoolfield Hall\, where our performances are held\, are handicapped accessible. We offer alternative meals for those with food allergies when given advance notice: please note dietary and mobility restrictions in the comments at checkout. \nMeal ticket sales often end before the show dates\, and may not be available at the door. Purchase tickets at www.ferrum.edu/theatre-tickets. \nEmail us at theatre@ferrum.edu or call the box office at (540) 365-4355. Please leave a message at the box office phone number\, and we will make every effort to respond as quickly as possible. \nRead more about the 2023 production and the creation of many puppet characters here: https://cardinalnews.org/2023/12/07/ferrum-brings-a-much-loved-puppet-christmas-to-the-stage \nCast list for 2026 before the first rehearsal:
