Matinee Performance of 'Miracle on 34th Street' in Valrico (Dec. 9)

The Village Players production of "Miracle on 34th Street" is on stage today, Dec. 9, for its sole matinee performance, at the James McCabe Theater in Valrico. Show time is 3 p.m.

"Miracle on 34th Street" centers on divorcee Doris Walker and her young daughter, Susan (played by Hannah Westcott), who is raised to believe that fantasy is misguided. When she meets Kris Kringle, the man her mother hires to replace an inebriated Santa Claus in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, Susan's upbringing is put to the test — and so, too, her mother's beliefs.
