"All Is Calm: The Christmas Truce of 1914"

On December 20 and 21, Franklin Theatre Works brings to stage a seasonal story you may not have heard before. "All Is Calm: The Christmas Truce of 1914" recounts the events of Christmas Eve and Day during World War I when the German and the Allied soldiers called a cease-fire and celebrate Christmas together, sharing what little they had with song and fraternity. Join Jesse and Dave at rehearsal in Flemington to find out more about this moving holiday musical.
