Description

This adaptation of Earl Hamner Jr.’s autobiographical novel formed the basis for the television series “The Waltons.” Set during the Great Depression, the story centers on a poor family in the Virginia mountains worrying about having a lean Christmas, because there’s so little money to celebrate. This anxiety is heightened when the family learns that the bus on which the father commutes to work each day has crashed. The eldest son, feeling the first sensations of adulthood and responsibility, decides to leave home to reach the scene of the accident. As they wait for news of their father’s fate, the family members stick together and, in the process, discover the true meaning of Christmas.

Purchase tickets online or by calling 972-745-7719.
