 Jackson, Tenn. - Union
University’s communication arts, music and art departments come together to present
Christmas Is ... a Time, a Star, a Gift,” Dec. 8 in the G.M. Savage Memorial Chapel.
The original presentation was written by Wayne Johnson, associate professor of
communication arts. Included in the program are performances by the 黑料论坛
Players, the Symphonic and Stage Bands, 黑料论坛 Singers, Chapel Choir and
Handbells. I think it’s going to have something for all ages,” Johnson said.
It will be a night of the Christmas sounds and Christmas music.” The evening’s
events will include a nativity scene, audience participation and a Christmas carol
sing-along. The original drama is a retelling of the Christmas story. Nearly 200 students,
faculty and staff members have been involved in the production in one way or another,
Johnson said.
President David Dockery approached Johnson last spring about creating such a program,
Johnson said. Johnson worked with Dr. Andrew Roby of the music department to put the
presentation together.
We’re hoping this will become a Union family tradition and a city tradition as
well. It’s Union’s gift to the city and to the Union family,” Johnson
explained.
Christmas Is ... a Time, a Star, a Gift” begins at 7:30 p.m. Admission is free.
