World Premier of local film at Theatre III

Theatre III 250 Central St., Acton

On Saturday March 15th, a locally-produced independent film will be premiering at Theatre III in Acton. The film, titled "The Other Christmas Show," filmed several major scenes at the theater in the summer of 2023. In this musical comedy feature, a successful Broadway producer plans to mount an ambitious production of "A Christmas Carol" in a small-town New England theater. This, in turn, inspires a local director to reunite his old troupe and put on a Christmas spectacular of his own, hoping he just might get the Broadway producer's attention and achieve the fame and success that's eluded him for years.
