Let It Be Christmas

The fifth annual production of Let it Be Christmas is coming to the
Kirkwood Community Center’s Robert Reim Theater.  Performances of the rock opera will be held
on Sunday, December 15- Tuesday December 17 at 7:30 p.m.  The St. Louis community is invited to witness
this fresh performance of the Gospel according to Matthew, Mark, Luke, John,
Paul, George and Ringo. 

Let
it Be Christmas, a production of Kirkwood United Methodist Church (KUMC),
tells the story of Mary, Joseph, and the birth of Jesus through the Beatles’
music.  The show offers a distinctive
holiday experience for the St. Louis audience.

The show’s director, Rocky
Marlowe-former St. Louis broadcaster turned Methodist pastor says, “it’s
incredible, every year the shows sell out, people really respond to this unique
telling of our age-old story.  The
carefully selected collection of Beatles’ songs in our production is authentic
to the lives of Mary and Joseph, real people going through strife and
ultimately genuine joy at the birth of Jesus. 
Retelling their story with a modern twist makes it fresh, relatable and
inviting.” And this year we’ve added a new scene and a few new songs to further
surprise and delight!”
