Christmas Break is a three act play about students who have to remain, or choose to remain on their university campus during the Christmas break between Fall and Spring semesters. The comedy is a light hearted look at the individual students dealing with each one’s unique situations. Cultural differences, life changing decisions,homesickness, loneliness, boredom, and the holiday of Christmas itself present challenges that each student must deal with. It takes an unflappable and optimistic dorm mother, Mrs. Fulton, to put the best possible face on things, including trying to create a traditional Christmas for the exchange students’ first experience with the holiday.
