Madeline’s Christmas
This holiday production is an Atlanta favorite — now in its 12th year! It’s a great choice for families who don’t want to splurge on Nutcracker tickets.
From the Horizon website:
“In an old house in Paris that was covered with vines lived twelve little girls in two straight lines,” begins the story of Madeline. This holiday season will be unlike any other for Madeline and her friends. While on their morning walk with Miss Clavel, the girls come down with the flu, and as they take to their bed, many wonder if they will be able to go home for Christmas. With the arrival of a mysterious stranger, Madeline and the other girls get a holiday adventure beyond their wildest dreams.
The play is a musical adaptation of the classic children’s book.
Featuring 24 local girls performing alongside professional actors in collaboration with The Atlanta Children’s Theatre Company, this beloved Atlanta tradition is a holiday must-see!
In the production’s twelve-year history, more than 220 local girls have realized their dream of performing with a professional theatre company as part of the Madeline’s Christmas cast. This year’s cast of girls are ages 8 to 12, from 5 metro Atlanta counties and 18 different schools.
