Audio Air Force’s annual holiday audio show this year will feature some classics as well as original material, all with a holiday theme. First off is an episode of the "Superman" radio show from December, 1948. This will be followed by an episode of the "The Bickersons", made famous in the late 40's-early 50's by Don Ameche and Frances Langford, originally aired on network radio in December, 1946. Both of these classic shows will use the original network radio scripts.

Also in the Audio Air Force holiday show will be some material written specifically for performance by members of our group. These include the "Lansing Guild of High Theatre" with a comedy about a theater group putting on a holiday show; and two other original scripts being performed for the first time. The "Pinkerton" script is a continuation of a series performed by Audio Air Force in previous shows, and "A Midwinter Madrigal" is an original script written by a member of AAF and also being performed for the first time.

The show is scheduled for Friday, December 6 at the Hannah Community Center in East Lansing, at 7pm.

The Audio Air Force is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that promotes writing, producing and educating about audio theater. This includes recreating classic radio and audio productions, along with encouraging the production of new, original audio theater scripts and productions.

Trans-Siberian Orchestra brings their "THE LOST CHRISTMAS EVE" tour to Van Andel Arena on Sunday, December 8th with two show times at 3:00PM & 7:30PM.

This year's tour marks the grand return of "THE LOST CHRISTMAS EVE" to the stage for the first time since 2013. Expect an all-new, dazzling spectacle packed with pyrotechnics, lasers, and the incredible storytelling synonymous with TSO. The celebration continues with a high-energy second set featuring the group's greatest hits and fan favorites.

"THE LOST CHRISTMAS EVE" is a product of the imagination of and based on TSO’s double-platinum CD of the same name. The plot is one that resonates with people deeply over the holiday season. Alone on Christmas Eve, a bitter old businessman wandered New York City. Once a rising star, he’d traded love, family, and joy for a life of solitude and regret. The tragic loss of his wife hardened his heart, pushing him away from his infant son and into decades of isolation. Then, a chance encounter with a mysterious girl led him to a life-altering phone call. His son, who he abandoned decades ago, was alive, a gentle soul caring for troubled newborns in a maternity ward. After seeking him out, the son gives a silent and forgiving gaze to his long-lost father. As they sit together, comforting innocent infants, a new reunited life together begins.
