The Christmas Schooner – TesserAct Theatre Ensemble’s Holiday Musical at Cutting Hall

Sponsoring a community event such as The Christmas Schooner is an opportunity for Painting in Partnership of Palatine to support the arts in our town. At the Sponsor’s Gala Evening on November 18th, it is also an opportunity for us to invite friends, clients and associates to help us usher in the Christmas spirit with the play’s touching story line and wonderful songs.

Christmas Schooner

The Christmas Schooner is based on a true story of the German and Swiss immigrants who sailed on ships like the Rouse Simmons, so called the “Christmas Tree Ship”, that sailed across Lake Michigan to Chicago to deliver Christmas trees (Tannenbaum). “The Christmas Schooner” tells a story of Peter and Alma Stossel, whose pioneering spirit is full of the energy and dreams of German immigrants in America during the 1880’s. The musical is an exciting story of courage, tradition, family value and the spirit of Christmas giving.

The musical is performed by the TesserAct Theatre Ensemble, a not-for-profit organization based in Palatine. Earlier this year, they produced “Music Man” and “Alas! Alas! Zorro’s Back” and offer their performances in local theatres such as Cutting Hall.

You are invited to join us at the Sponsor’s Gala Evening on November 18th. There will be cocktails and hors d’oeuvres from 6:00, with the play starting at 7:30. If you are interested to join us, send us an email for a reservation.
