While visiting her aunt, Elsie Kipling receives in the mail from her father a recently published copy of his new book. Elsie and a group of new found friends eagerly act out the stories, a series of animal adventures, with great flair. That is, until they come to the final tale, which, to the suprise of her friends, Elsie is reluctant to enact. The ending, with a surprise or two, is moving and uplifting as Elsie learns something about herself and her friends.

The story that was Charles Dickens' own favorite about the transformation of one man's mean and stingy heart. Join the Riverside Community Players for their telling of this classic and timeless story that touches the heart, lifts the spirits, and brings the true meaning of the holiday season to life.

In this charming and witty adaptation, Hans Christian Andersen himself frames four classic tales where vanity, beauty and magic, both real and imagined, spring to life in each tale. A princess learns a lesson from a prince turned swineherd, a pixie is faced with a choice between art and appetite, an emperor is tricked into revealing his true colors and, in the sweet conclusion, a duckling learns that true beauty is in self-knowledge and acceptance.
