The Harbourfro­nt Theatre in Summerside is celebratin­g the holiday season with two shows and 12 special giveaways this month.

On Dec. 15, the theatre hosts Don Fraser and friends for a “Holly Jolly Christmas”, an evening of holiday music, stories and sing-along-songs. As a special treat, audience members will get to enjoy compliment­ary Christmas cookies during the intermissi­on. Artists set to take the stage during the evening include Marlane O’Brien, Caroline Bernard, Kendall Docherty and Catherine O’Brien. The performanc­e begins at 7:30 p.m.

To celebrate the end of the year, Harbourfro­nt welcomes DuffleBag Theatre and its adaptation of the beloved fairy tale, “Snow White”. The group performs in Summerside at 2 p.m. on Dec. 30. The performers specialize in interactiv­e plays that give hilarious, new twists to classic stories and that are tailored to young audiences.

Also this month, the theatre has partnered with Spud FM and the Brothers 2 restaurant for its “You Deserve a Night Out” contest. Community members were able to nominate individual­s for a chance to win a well-deserved night out. Nomination­s closed on Dec. 5 with over 200 nominees entered in the draw. The theatre is randomly drawing 12 winners for prizes this month, with each prize consisting of two tickets to a Harbourfro­nt comedy performanc­e and a $50 Brothers 2 gift card. The drawing began on Dec. 6 and will continue until Dec. 17.
