GAOS is proud to present it’s Christmas Show; “The Wind in the Willows” by Kenneth Graham. One of the best-loved works of children’s fiction which follows the adventures of Mole, Rat, Badger, Toad, and their friends. Follow the animals on this comical modern-day production, scripted by Alan Bennet, where their adventures and misadventures populate the entire story. From an idyllic riverside picnic to a snowy encounter in the Wild Woods, and from poop-pooping in Toad’s shiny new motor car to escaping jail! But watch out for the weasels who plot to take down the protagonists and take over Toad Hall. Will they succeed or does good overcome evil?
Save the date! We would love you & your family to join us.
On Fri 6th, Sat 7th, Sun 8th Dec, or Fri 13th, Sat 14th, Sun 15 Dec at the Theatre de Marens, Nyon.

On Christmas Eve – a celebration he detests above all others and happily qualifies as “humbug” – Ebenezer Scrooge, an avaricious moneylender – is visited by three ghosts…
The first one takes Scrooge back in time to past Christmases. The second one takes him on a journey through the present, showing him the poverty that surrounds him and which he does nothing to combat. And the third takes him to an incredibly bleak future, where a helpless Scrooge witnesses his own death, alone and reviled by all. Overwhelmed by these revelations about himself and the world around him, Scrooge performs a last minute act of redemption, just moments before the joyous bells ring out for Christmas…
“I remain convinced that all the evils committed by individuals on this Earth come in large part from the evils previously suffered by those same individuals. And nowhere has anyone more clearly expressed this in a simple story than Charles Dickens in A Christmas Carol.” Claude-Inga Barbey
Charity event for the association 1, 2, 3 Hope, Love, Live for Peace, which helps children traumatized by war and armed conflict through music, dance and singing.
