Orange Coast College’s Repertory Theatre Company presents “The Return of Peppermint Prince,” an old-fashioned Christmas melodrama and ice cream social. This family-friendly show invites the audience to boo the villain, cheer the hero, and sing along to holiday favorites.
The story heads to Sweetieville, where villain Simon Snodgrass D.D.S. tries to ruin Christmas once again. Families will enjoy a complimentary ice cream treat during intermission, plus songs, audience interaction, a Christmas carol sing-along, and a children’s joke contest. The production is an original work written for OCC and performed by students in their student-run theatre company.

- Holiday melodrama & sing-alongs
