The Other Christmas Show

This all-new musical feature film premiered in early 2025 and will be hitting the festival circuit soon!

For years, Aaron Hawthorne and his theater company staged ambitious musical productions in a suburban New England theater, and ultimately went their separate ways when the shows failed to find much of an audience. However, when Aaron learns that a famed Broadway producer is staging a new production of Charles Dickens’s A Christmas Carol in his hometown theater, he sees it as a chance to finally be noticed and reunites his old team to scrape together a Christmas show of their own to be performed the night before. As the team powers through the setbacks and complications of bringing their show to life, it starts to become apparent that the Broadway troupe that’s invaded their town may have a hidden agenda.
