The holiday season is upon us, and there’s no better way to celebrate than with Stage Left Players’ original production of Jingle My Bell! 🎭

Imagine this: It’s 1956 in Lisbon, Ohio. A blizzard strands a greyhound bus full of passengers at DeeDee & Dave's Diner—a once-thriving local favorite that’s fallen on hard times. You, the audience, step into the story as the passengers, sharing laughs, holiday cheer, and timeless classics like Jingle Bell Rock, Winter Wonderland, Let It Snow, and more. 🎶❄️


But there’s a twist! Local health inspector Floyd Knickerbocker arrives to “inspect” the diner, stirring up some extra drama. Will DeeDee and Dave save their beloved diner, or is it curtains for good?

This holiday season, our stage is brimming with two weekends of festive magic that will warm your heart and delight your senses.

November 15-24: "Where’s Rudolph?"

Our grade K-8 youth take you on an unforgettable journey to the North Pole with two energetic casts—Jingle and Holly—bringing the legend of Rudolph to life!

Prepare to be amazed by a spectacular North Pole setting complete with swirling snowfalls, a blizzard, and flying reindeer (thanks to modern magical projections). Plus, our Executive Director and playwright, Kandy Cleland, has given the original script a fun, modern update:

  • Rudolph is now a courageous female reindeer finding her place.

  • Santa’s rocking a smart watch.

  • Mrs. Claus takes charge in the flight tower.

  • The Ice Queen hilariously navigates her Gen Z-speaking minions.

All this happens as the North Pole races to save Christmas during an epic blizzard.
