Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas

THIS PRODUCTION FOLLOWS THE MISGUIDED PASSION OF JACK SKELLINGTON HALLOWEENTOWN'S BELOVED PUMPKIN KING, WHO OVERSEES THE CREATION OF ALL THE GHOULISH DELIGHTS, FRIGHTS AND SURPRISES THAT HIS HOLIDAY TRADI- TIONALLY EXPORTS TO THE "REAL WORLD." BORED WITH THE SAME ANNUAL ROUTINE, JACK FINDS A NEW PURPOSE IN LIFE WHEN HE STUMBLES UPON THE ENTRYWAY TO CHRISTMAS TOWN AND BECOMES INSTANTLY ENRAPTURED WITH THE BRIGHT COLORS, TOYS, DECORATIONS AND WARM SPIRIT THAT HE DISCOVERS THERE. HE RETURNS HOME OBSESSED WITH BRINGING CHRISTMAS UNDER HIS CONTROL AND ENLISTS HIS LOYAL TOWNSPEOPLE TO HELP HIM BECOME A SUBSTI- TUTE SANTA AND CREATE A "NEW AND IMPROVED" VERSION OF THE HOLIDAY. BUT EVEN THE BEST LAID PLANS OF MICE AND SKELETON MEN CAN GO SERIOUSLY ASTRAY AS JACK DISCOVERS ALL TOO SOON.
