This Christmas Eve seems like any other in small town Palestine, Texas in 1963. But something very different is about to happen tonight.
When Barb MacIntyre plans to serve up a warm Christmas Eve for the handful of travelers who couldn’t make it home for the holidays, her Cafe becomes an unlikely junction where many lives cross and touch each other for a night– and a lifetime.
The title is a play on words – BETHLEHEM means “Town of Bread”, and this comedy, directed by Nichole Robinson, will immerse you in a world of discovery, friendship, and Christmas.
