'The First Noel' playing 12/8-24 @Ferst Center for the Arts (VIDEO)

Kenny Leon's True Colors Theatre Company presents the Atlanta premiere of "The First Noel." It's playing now through December 24 at the GA Tech's Ferst Center for the Arts. The show is written by NYC's LeLund Thompson and Jason Webb and is directed by TV, Film and Broadway star---Jasmine Guy.
 
Set in 1980’s Harlem, "The First Noel" is a musical that follows three generations of a family forever changed by the tragic loss of a loved one, when an unexpected visit reveals some long-absent Christmas joy. It is a story about how a community is healed, one family at a time, as everyday people do extraordinary things to help one another receive the gift of love at Christmas time. Music includes a re-imaging of the traditional holiday favorites in Jazz, Gospel and Pop styles.
