From “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer” to “It’s a SpongeBob Christmas,” animated holiday specials serve as the inspiration for Christmas Toons at the Gateway Playhouse. Presented by KCKB Productions and conceived by John McMahon, Christmas Toons will be performed on Friday, December 7, Saturday, December 8, Friday, December 14, and Saturday, December 15. Show times are 7 p.m. on Friday, and 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. on Saturday.

For baby boomers and millennials alike, this nostalgic holiday revue will conjure fond memories of sitting around the television, watching Christmas specials. Christmas Toons will feature Broadway singers, local talent, and students from Gateway to the Arts, the Gateway’s summer education program. Mr. McMahon serves as Musical Director for the performances, which will be filled with song, dance, and laughter, as well as a few surprises.

Christmas Toons is truly an original take on holiday classics,” said Kelly Briggs of KCKB Productions. “Beloved Claymation Christmas specials, along with more recent animated shows like SpongeBob, will come to life in a show that’s perfect for the whole family. We may even have a visit from Santa himself.”

All seats are $25, and seating is reserved. Tickets can be purchased at www.gatewaybythebay.org or (609) 653-0553. The Gateway Playhouse is located at 738 Bay Avenue in Somers Point, New Jersey
