Churchill & Roosevelt: The Christmas That Saved the World!
From the creators of Churchill comes a brand-new theatrical event that brings to life one of the most consequential meetings of the 20th century. CHURCHILL & ROOSEVELT: THE CHRISTMAS THAT SAVED THE WORLD tells the gripping story of December 1941, when British Prime Minister Winston Churchill crossed the Atlantic to meet President Franklin D. Roosevelt at the White House—just weeks after the attack on Pearl Harbor.
Written by David Payne, this gripping drama explores how two very different leaders forged a deep personal bond and a united vision that would shape the course of the war—and the world. Set against the urgency of a global crisis, the play brings to life the tension, strategy, and humanity behind their historic alliance.
More than a wartime meeting, it was the beginning of a partnership that led to victory—and a peace that still echoes today. This is the story of the Christmas that changed everything.
Fortuna the Time Bender vs. The Schoolgirls of Doom
