BRUNSWICK — In “Holiday Stories and More” coming to The Theater Project in December, a dozen actors young and old will perform a variety of pieces that focus on the holidays.

Among the songs is “The Twelve Days of Christmas,” animated to make one reconsider a Christmas song you may have come to take for granted (four French hens, anyone?).

Poems by poets Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Yeats, T.S. Elliot and an unknown local would-be poet focus on the season, and four readers present a World War I Christmas memory.

There’s also an entirely new take on Robert Frost’s “Stopping by a Woods on a Snowy Evening” and an upbeat version of the Hallelujah chorus in Handel’s “Messiah,” as well as other music more traditionally presented.

“Holiday Stories and More” will be onstage December 6-8.

Performance times are Friday and Saturday at 7:30 p.m., and Sunday at 2 p.m. Tickets are “pay what you want,” available online anytime at www.theaterproject.com, or by calling the box office at 729- 8584.

The Theater Project is located at 14 School St.
