The Babcock Performing Readers' December presentation will feature two Christmas stories. "The Watchman," by Garland Bennett, tells the story of a Roman centurion's vigil over the Christ in the hours before his crucifixion. "The Christmas Miracle of Jonathan Toomey," by Susan Wojciechowski tells of a miracle that will set the Christmas spirit. Michael Bennett directs members of his family in these stories.

The performance will be in the Olpin Little Theater at the U of U Student Union, 7:30 p.m. Thursday 14 December. Admission and parking are free.
