Pahrump Theatre Company Launches Two Holiday Shows at Calvada Theater

Pahrump Theatre Company is set to present two distinct holiday productions at the Calvada Theater, located at 1266 E. Calvada Boulevard, Suite 1. The company will mount A Tiny Christmas Carol, a family oriented retelling performed by young actors, and Young Grinchenstein, a mature audience comedy that blends parody and chaotic holiday elements.

A Tiny Christmas Carol follows Tiny Tam and a group of children as they try to save their hospital wing from closure by a pint sized Scrooge. Showtimes are December 12 at 6 p.m., December 13 at 6 p.m., December 14 at 2 p.m., December 18 at 6 p.m., December 19 at 6 p.m., December 20 at 6 p.m., and December 21 at 2 p.m. Ticket prices are $5 for children, $10 for veterans and seniors, and $15 for adults.

Young Grinchenstein is recommended for mature audiences and offers evening and matinee performances across December 12 through 14 and December 18 through 21. Ticket prices for that production are $15 for veterans and seniors, and $20 for adults.

For local residents, the twin productions represent more than seasonal entertainment. The youth centered show creates a visible pathway for young people to gain performance experience, build confidence, and engage with community institutions. The company s veterans and senior pricing signals an effort to broaden access and include older residents and those who have served. Affordable tickets also lower economic barriers for families seeking cultural activities during the holidays.

Economically, concentrated evening and weekend performances can draw steady patronage to Calvada Boulevard businesses, supporting restaurants and shops that rely on local foot traffic. Institutionally, the theatre s programming reinforces the role of community arts as a civic asset that fosters volunteerism, local partnerships, and intergenerational interaction.

Both productions run at the Calvada Theater in December, and they offer distinct choices for families and adults. The combination of youth participation and adult oriented comedy underscores the theater company s contribution to community life, providing affordable cultural options and opportunities for civic engagement during the holiday season.
