(0:17) You guys knocked it out of the park once again. (0:19) So good. Thank you so much for putting on that show with the cast.

(0:22) Of course, it’s a blast. We love putting on these community musicals and we’re just grateful for (0:27) the support and that we can keep doing it. (0:29) Well, I’m sure you would like a little bit of a break, (0:31) but I’m already looking forward to next year.

(0:35) Well, Jacqueline, let’s talk about what’s happening at the Afton Ford Theater. (0:37) Salt River Art Society continues to do a great job with lighting up acts. (0:41) And let’s start off with December 6th.

(0:43) And it’s a wonderful life happening on the stage. (0:45) Yeah. So December 6th, we have Riot Act from Jackson.

(0:49) They’re actually bringing their Christmas show down to the Ford Theater for the first time. (0:54) So this will be fun. (0:56) It’s a wonderful life.

(0:57) I was kind of like a radio talk show, which you’re pretty familiar with, (1:01) but it should be a really fun, fun show. (1:05) And we’re excited to kind of work with the Riot Act company up there for the first time. (1:10) Very cool.

It’s a live radio play is how it’s described, right? (1:13) So perfect. That’s December 6th. (1:16) That’ll be a great way to really kick off.

(1:18) I think the Christmas season in early December. (1:20) And then the traditional Michael McLean’s The Forgotten Carols. (1:24) Yes.

Again, again, for our fourth year, we’re bringing it back. (1:28) And so we’ll have The Forgotten Carols December 11th, 12th. (1:32) And then we’re going to take a break.

(1:34) So Star Valley Arts Council can have their performance on the 13th. (1:38) And then we’ll perform again the 15th and 16th. (1:42) Excellent.

Excellent. (1:43) And as far as cast on that, that’s been finalized, I assume. (1:48) Oh, yeah.

(1:48) Who are we going to see on stage for The Forgotten Carols this year? (1:51) Yeah. So we have some people returning again, which is super great. (1:55) We’ve got Katie McEwen and Chad Merritt, of course.

(1:58) He’s done it every year. (2:00) There’ll be Daniel Lechner. (2:02) But we also have some new faces this year.

(2:04) We’ve got James Arbazue is joining us in the cast. (2:08) And we also have Bethany and Autumn Struger are in the cast as well. (2:14) Bailey Simpson, she’s new.

(2:16) And so we’re super excited to kind of grow the cast from what we’ve had in the past. (2:20) So it’s a little bit bigger of a cast. (2:22) So it’ll be fun.

(2:23) Excellent. (2:23) Love it. (2:23) Great tradition.

(2:24) Michael McLean’s The Forgotten Carols. (2:26) That’s December 11th, 12th and 14th, right? (2:30) 15th. (2:30) 15th.

Sorry. (2:31) 11th, 12th and 15th. (2:32) And 16th.

(2:33) And the 16th at the Afton Ford Theater. (2:34) You can get all the dates online, of course, with your tickets at saltriverarts.com. (2:39) And then, of course, we’ve had Mark McKay at the Ford Theater for a couple of years. (2:42) Looks like he’s on his way back.

(2:43) Yeah. (2:43) He said he loves coming to Afton and he loves performing at the Ford Theater. (2:47) So we’re really excited to have him back.

(2:50) And he’s got a fun Christmas lineup for us this year. (2:53) So. (2:53) Very cool.

(2:54) That’s December 22nd with Mark McKay. (2:58) All those events happening in December at the Afton Ford Theater. (3:01) As always, get dates, tickets, details at saltriverarts.com. (3:07) Jaclyn, anything we missed at the Afton Ford Theater you’d like to mention? (3:10) No, just come out and celebrate the holiday with us.
