A celebration of all the holiday classics,\\xa0\\u2019Twas The Night is a feel-good homage to the original poem, set in a world with security alarms, cell phones, and a little Christmas magic. Parents Ian and Margaret are having a serene Christmas night, their two children dreaming of sugar plums in the next room, when a series of noises and crashes cause concern that Margaret\\u2019s younger brother is playing a holiday prank. But who, really, arose such a clatter? In the end, the whole family remembers that it\\u2019s never too late to say what you mean and that the spirit of Christmas is stronger than ever.
Listeners of \'Twas the Night are encouraged\\xa0to donate to\\xa0The Actors Fund, supporting their mission of fostering stability and resiliency, and providing a safety net for performing arts and entertainment professionals over their lifespan.\\xa0
