Charlie Brown visits Lucy's psychiatric booth and – for five cents – tells her his troubles. After listing a multitude of potential conditions, Lucy diagnoses Charlie Brown with pantaphobia: the fear of everything. Realizing Charlie Brown needs involvement, Lucy enlists him to direct the Christmas play. The classic animated television special A Charlie Brown Christmas comes to life in this faithful stage adaptation in which Charlie Brown, Snoopy and the rest of the Peanuts gang discover the true meaning of Christmas.
A Charlie Brown Christmas is proudly presented by grade 1-3 students at CTORA Academy as part of the CTORA Academy 2025 New Year Showcase.
This special event offers a delightful 30-minute performance of A Charlie Brown Christmas, followed by 45 minutes of musical theatre performances by CTORA Academy grade 1-12 students.
