Based on the historic voyages of Christmas tree ships during the late 1800s and early 1900s, The Christmas Schooner is the musical story of a Michigan shipping captain who braves the deadly winter weather to bring Christmas trees to homesick German-American families in Chicago. This timely and stirring tale of love and loss reminds us of tradition, family, and responsibility.
