Mrs. Frump, the orphanage’s director, has borrowed an old bus and has arranged for each of her charges to spend the holiday with a local family — but she hasn’t told the members of the orphanage’s board of trustees, who think Frump has gotten too old and too soft to manage the facility. Determined to carry out her Christmas plans, she and the children set out in the borrowed bus, picking up a passenger on an adventurous holiday ride.

New London Theatre will stage “The Christmas Bus” today through Nov. 21. Tickets are $10 in advance and $12 at the door. For more information, call 770-559-1484 or visit www.newlondontheatre.org.
