Author(s):
Nikki Harmon
The Ho Ho Hotline has been installed in a retirement home so that children can talk to Santa or Mrs. Claus. Meanwhile, Jensie, with her home computer, has broken into the phone company's data banks to find the address of the Ho Ho Hotline. She comes in search of Santa Claus. What she finds is Aaron Lefkowitz. "According to the phone company this is the North Pole and you're Santa Claus," insists Jensie. "All right, you win. I'm Santa Lefkowitz," snaps back the old man. "I don't believe you. Santa's not Jewish." Lefkowitz retorts, "Who else would work on Christmas?" In the short time this unusual twosome spends together, an old man's lost imagination is rekindled and a unique humor bridges an 80-year gap. Learn old Vaudeville routines with Jensie and fly to Paris for a horse race before lunch. But most of all, laugh and cry and live with a very special pair who find each other at the most special season of the year." A captivating little jewel of a play." (Alexandria Virginia Times) Winner of the 1990 Little Theatre of Alexandria National Competition. One ext. set.
