Follow Max’s adventures as he encounters dancing toy soldiers, caroling worms, and performing poinsettias, all while trying to find his way back to his family. To tell his story, Lightwire Theater’s L-Wire technology enables talented actors to dance across a completely dark stage as ultra-creative, glow-in-the-dark, larger-than-life characters. A soundtrack of timeless holiday hits, including artists like Nat King Cole, Mariah Carey, and Tchaikovsky, accompanies this magical and captivating tale of family, friendship, and hope.
