When playing for five or five thousand, everyday folks or the President of the United States, the Eric Mintel Quartet plays with the same heart. It’s not about what or who you are; it’s about performing music and moving your soul. Pianist and composer, Eric Mintel has brought his own energetic and lyrical style of jazz to audiences of all ages for more than 20 years. His style has been compared to that of the great Dave Brubeck. Career highlights include two performances by invitation at the White House, several concerts at the Kennedy Center, and a special concert at the United Nations. Join us this Tuesday for cherished holiday songs in preparation for the Christmas season! All tickets are $20.

Also playing at Jean’s this holiday season is The Best Christmas Pageant Ever, the Musical, adapted from the beloved children’s book by Barbara Robinson. Performances are scheduled December 2-18, Friday and Saturday evenings at 7:30 pm and Sunday afternoon at 3:00 pm. Tickets are $25, with $1 off per donated item of non-perishable food, up to $5 (food drive will benefit the Lin-Wood food pantry). Bring your non-perishable food items to the Box Office at Jean’s Playhouse to receive your discount. Tickets on sale now! This production is generously sponsored by Dead River Company.

The Herdmans are the worst kids in the history of the world–so when they crash Sunday school and demand parts in the Christmas pageant, the whole town panics. There’s not supposed to be biting or cigar-smoking in Bethlehem, and while these kids have never even heard the Christmas story, they definitely have rewrites! Soon everyone from the terrified pint-sized shepherds to the furious church ladies are calling for reluctant director Grace Bradley to cancel the whole thing. It’s up to Bradley and the Reverend to help from www.health-canada-pharmacy.com their community see the Christmas story and the Herdman kids through new eyes in this buoyant musical adaptation of the funny and touching holiday classic. Silent night? Not a chance. But sometimes a little joyful noise is just right for Christmas.
