Lighthouse Productions

Lighthouse Productions began its journey late in 2009 when a father and daughter decided to team up and venture out on their own. Russ and Rachel had worked together on other projects, including directing and acting in productions with The Good Foot Players. They had also tried their hand at writing, directing and producing a children’s musical called Heard it from The Great Vine at the church they were attending at the time. 2009, however, marked the first time they would write, direct and produce a show independently.

It started with an idea. “What do you think of bringing some of everyone’s favorite Christmas characters together?” asked Rachel. “Maybe Christmas has disappeared and they have to find it.” Russ loved the idea and suggested, “Why don’t they search for Christmas in a time machine.” And so The Search for Christmas was born. The show was cast, a crew was formed and the band came together. By God’s grace it came together rather quickly and Lighthouse Productions has been moving forward ever since.
