BORDERLANDS THEATER TO PRESENT " A TUCSON PASTORELA" BY WENDY BURK, ERIC MAGRANE AND THE PASTORELA GHOST WRITERS, DECEMBER 20-23, 2012 AT THE LEO RICH THEATER, TUCSON CONVENTION CENTER 260 S. CHURCH AVENUE.

A Tucson Tradition for the
17th Season!

Shepherds, Sheep and Dog follow the star to Belen to witness the miracle of the Nativity. Sneaky Devils are in hot pursuit to snare them with shiny gadgets and pop culture, while glorious Archangels protect them with flaming swords and witty tactics. Will evil finally destroy the innocent, or will fortitude and compassion prevail!? The fun continues with lovely Christmas carols sung in Spanish and English accompanied by "Gertie and the T.O. Boyz" rock'n Waila band! Piñatas for the niños after every show, with a special performance by Ballet Folklorico Tapatio before Sunday's matinee!

Directed by Eva Tessler
