Harris dancers will stage “The Anyone can be a train engineer ® | *
Wonder of Christmas’ today
“The Wonder of Christmas”
will be staged by dancers from
the Joan Harris Centre at 2 p.m.
today, Dec. 13, at the E. L.
Meyers High School auditorium
in Wilkes-Barre.
“Rockette-style” production
numbers open the show and are
complimented by routines
staged to both long-established
favorites and fashionable rendi-
tions of the music that defines
this most joyful time of the
year. Once the production be-
gins, guests will be treated to
traditional dances, inspirational
lyrical pieces, narrative story
telling and good old fashion
song and dance routines all
staged to a plethora of seasonal
classics.
Two of the feature scenes in
the show will be a humorous
dance and narrative treatment
to the classic poem, “The Night
Before Christmas” and a set of
stirring dances staged to repre-
sent the Nativity to remind ev-
eryone of the true “reason for
the season.”
Tickets for “The Wonder of
Christmas” are $12 at the door.
For more information, call 287-
7977.
Anna Giacometti, of Dallas, is one of the Joan Harris Dancers who
will be appear in “The Wonder of Christmas" today at E.L. Meyers
High School in Wilkes-Barre.
Dozens of children, with
their parents and grandpar-
ents, have been running holi-
day electric trains in the win-
dow of the downtown Barnes
& Noble King’s/Wilkes Col-
lege bookstore on Public
Square in Wilkes-Barre.
The free display will contin-
ue from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on
Friday, Dec. 18.
The four-foot-square display
has lighted houses, a puffing
Pennsylvania Railroad steam
engine, a classic red-and-yel-
low Santa Fe passenger train
that talks, a Gandy Dancer’s
work car with a flashing light,
skaters on a pond, an ice fish-
erman, stylish cars and trucks
from the 1950s, telephone poles
and snowy Christmas trees.
The train and the display are
free and handicapped-accessi-
ble.
“People in wheelchairs come
in and ran the trains,” says Rob-
ert Phillip Bomboy, a former
resident of Shavertown and an
author who operates model
train displays year round in a
program called Wheelchair En-
gineers at the Columbia Mall
on Interstate 80.
“This layout is the right
height so that handicapped
people and anyone else can
have fun with it,” Bomboy said.
