All I Need For Christmas: The three employees of the Emotional Helpline have devised a way to have Christmas Eve off this year. They have engaged Thomas Wellmore, a charming but self-centered Wall Street type to man the phones. As the evening wears on and no one calls, he becomes increasingly irritated and his true character is revealed. Then, at the stroke of midnight, a cleaning woman enters with her young son, Christopher. Through the eyes of this mysterious child, Thomas is forced to examine himself and he learns what is really important in life.

Auld Lang Syne - One week later, it is now New Years Eve and Myrna's turn to handle the Helpline. Her plans to spend the evening searching for old friends on "TwitFace", and a traditional midnight toast with her dead husband are interrupted by a surprise visitor from her past. The teacher becomes the student and it's out with old, in with the new in this lighthearted look at love and change at any age.

Opens Sunday, Dec 4, Fridays & Saturdays 9, 10, 16, 17, other Sundays 11, 18.
