Synopsis
What happens when the only part you want in the Nutcracker doesn’t exist? What if you really want to play a raccoon? If you’re young Billie, you follow a family of raccoons out into the wild winter night!
Through her eyes, we discover that things aren’t always as they seem for the animals of our city. Was that a raccoon on a bike? Did that squirrel try to hit her with a snowball? Has someone lost this very important package, marked for Toronto? It just so happens to be Christmas Eve… (commonbootstheatre.ca)
