Having just staged the British comedy Table Manners, Beijing Playhouse will present the classic Christmas story Yes Virginia, There Is a Santa Claus as Charity Reader's Theatre on December 19 at 77 Theatre.

Yes Virginia is based on an 1897 letter to the New York Sun newspaper, asking about the existence of Santa Claus. Reader's theater uses neither sets nor costumes to tell the story, and actors present the show with their scripts in front of them, acting them out as they go.

All tickets sales will benefit the Maple Women's Counselling Center. Auditions for the show will be held on December 13.

For more information and reservations, please visit Beijing Playhouse's website.
