    The Twelve Dates of Christmas at the Moonlite
    A raucous one-woman show!

    The Twelve Dates of Christmas

    November 26 - December 23

    Written by Ginna Hoben

    Mary loves the holidays. Even when her fiancé calls to say he’s sick and can’t come to Thanksgiving with her family, she makes the best of the day and snuggles in to watch the Macy’s parade on TV. But when the parade camera zooms in on her fiancé kissing another woman, Mary’s holidays take a turn for the ridiculous. What follows is a year of hilarious and strange dates that bring Mary back around to the next holiday season wiser, happier, and more herself than ever before.

    MATURE CONTENT

    Barter Theatre is partially funded by:

    This project was supported [in part] by the Virginia Commission for the Arts, which receives support from the Virginia General Assembly and the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency. 

    A special thanks to the Town of Abingdon, Washington County, and the Virginia Tourism Corporation for their support.

    Barter at the Moonlite FAQ's

    How can I stay up to date about weather related changes to my reservation?

    In the event of weather related changes to your reservation, you will be contacted via the email address listed on your Barter Theatre account.

    If you would like to opt-in to receive text message notifications, text your show date (in MM/DD/YYYY format) to (276) 262-8066. For example: to opt-in for weather notifications about the performance scheduled for July 31, text "7/31/2021" to (276) 262 - 8066

    What if it is hot/cold?

    Barter at the Moonlite productions are best experienced from inside your vehicle. If it is chilly or too hot, you are welcome to keep the motor running during these one act shows.

    Can I watch from outside my car?

    Patrons may sit directly in front of their vehicles during phase three of Virginia’s Phased Reopening.

    How will I hear the show?

    Patrons may access the audio for the performance though their car’s FM radio. Barter Theatre partnered with Broadcastvision Entertainment to enable this feature.
