Putnam Street in downtown Williamston, kicks off the holidays with the World Premiere of A Lansing Christmas Adventure by Robert Hawlmark.

The beloved Christmas saga continues! A Lansing Christmas Adventure brings another original Hawlmark production to the Williamston Theatre stage, as the long-awaited sequel to A Very Williamston Christmas. On Christmas Eve, little Danny receives troubling information about
Santa Claus — news that shakes his belief in the magic of the season entirely. Determined to
uncover the truth, he embarks on a quest across familiar Lansing pit stops on a snowy night,
encountering a cast of new friends along the way. As the snowstorm intensifies and the clock
ticks closer to Christmas morning, Danny’s journey becomes something more: a search for
hope, magic, and what it really means to believe. A heartwarming tale of discovering the true
spirit of the holiday season, A Lansing Christmas Adventure is an unforgettable journey of
holiday cheer that will have you saying, “Yes, Danny; there is a Santa Claus.”
