Join us for Christmas in September with the world premiere of From Naughty to Nice, the newest film by The Old Trout Puppet Workshop. A behind-the-scenes presentation and Q&A with The Trouts to follow the screening.

From Naughty to Nice is a cautionary tale about how Santa wasn’t always the nicest guy in the world. In his youth, Santa lived a life of plenty, in a castle brimming with every toy imaginable. But when he greedily steals a handmade toy, the only toy he doesn’t possess, rebellion and revelation brew at the North Pole. WORLD PREMIERE
