Easley Foothills Playhouse celebrates the Christmas season with Thomas Ohlson’s charming play about a wise-man wannabe’s comic attempts to capitalize on the coming of the Messiah. In the process, this would-be fourth wise man misses the Nativity and ignores the true message of the Christmas season.

The play, which presents a new take on traditional Christmas stories about the birth and boyhood of Christ, opened off Broadway in 1964 and starred Christopher Lloyd.

Gold, Frankincense, Christmas Tree Ornaments, and Myrrh runs December 7-16 with Sunday shows at 3 p.m. and Friday and Saturday shows at 8 p.m. For ticket information call 864-855-1817, go to www.showtix4u.com or email the Playhouse at foothillsplayhouse@att.net.
