Magic of Lights is a dazzling, drive-through holiday lights experience featuring favorite holiday scenes and characters of the season using the latest LED technology and digital animations. Experience Magic of Lights from the comfort and safety of your own car as you wind through the sparkling path of Greenville’s best holiday tradition. Be sure to stop by Santa’s Village and the Enchanted Deer Forest for extra holiday magic! Kids 2 and under are free!
Step into the magic of Santa’s Village, where holiday cheer meets hands-on fun for the whole family. Feed and interact with gentle miniature horses, camels, Watusi cattle, pigs, sheep, alpacas, goats, waterfowl, antelope, and more—and don’t forget to purchase animal food to treat the many residents. Cuddle with bunnies, have your photo taken with a baby kangaroo, snap pictures with Santa in his animal barn, and visit the Grinch at his festive Grinch House.
Savor fresh coffee and pastries at Santa’s Sweet Delights, or enjoy hot cocoa, drinks, snacks, and food from our concession stand. Visit the souvenir shop for fun, colorful, and festive items, and leave your mark on the “feel good” graffiti board. Warm up by a crackling fire pit or the grand bonfire, roast marshmallows and s’mores, and steal a kiss under the mistletoe tree. Pose inside the giant lighted present, then find a picnic table to relax and take it all in.
Santa’s Village is more than a visit, it’s a memory in the making.

Alyssa and Homer are feeling disconnected in their marriage. Trying to start a family, Alyssa is hyper-focused on work while Homer has recently been laid off and thrown himself into an online video game. Not knowing how to navigate this new normal Alyssa does what she’s least comfortable with: start a support group for other women in the same situation. These strangers band together to devise a plan to get their partners back as they realize together, and only together, can they end this war.
A new comedy from Bekah Brunstetter, writer of THE CAKE, the digital short HOPE from LONG STORY SHORT, and nominated for a Tony Award for her book for THE NOTEBOOK musical on Broadway.
WHY SEE THIS SHOW:
Bekah writes comedies that make you laugh and also have a surprising amount of depth and characterization. This is a lovely multi-generational ensemble comedy with just enough surprises and belly laughs to keep you on your toes.
You don’t need to know it’s based on Lysistrata, but it is. (That one is for the nerds!) But, seriously, it helps that it has a little bit of the “the more things change the more things stay the same” to it, while updating it for the modern age and wrapping it up a lovely character study about platonic and romantic contemporary relationships.
WHO SHOULD SEE THIS SHOW? If you enjoyed THE CAKE, ODD, or a really good network sitcom like “Abbott Elementary” that is funny and zany but also has heart.

Madrigal Feaste 2025
What is a Madrigal Feaste?
We recreate a Renaissance style feast with a catered meal, costumes, singing, and entertainment. Our Royal Court, Jester, and his colleague, Mertonsire, are excited to introduce our special guest, Admiral Anchorbottom, who will regale you with tales of the sea and there are sure to be some shenanigans along the way! It will be a very “punny” evening and will surely put you in the holiday spirit!

Tickets will NOT be available at the door and must be purchased by December 1st. We will have two shows with banquet style seating in the WHHS Castle (magically transformed atrium!). Seating will be first come, first served, so we encourage early arrival to enjoy our holiday market. The Town Cryer will begin announcing the guests at 6:45 and escorting them to the banquet hall.

Saturday, December 6th at 7:00 PM

An Event to Remember: BYOT (Bring Your Own Tots)
The beloved indie classic “Napoleon Dynamite” was made almost 20 years ago. Since then, much has changed; but the characters, as enduring as they are endearing, stay in our hearts. Appealing to the inner teenager in each of us, the story, and more importantly the dialogue, makes “Napoleon Dynamite” one of the most quoted movies of our time.
Napoleon Dynamite makes us laugh – and laugh hard – over and over again. This unique evening includes a full screening of “Napoleon Dynamite” followed by a lively, freewheeling, interactive experience with fan-favorite cast members; Jon Heder (Napoleon Dynamite), Efren Ramirez (Pedro) and Jon Gries (Uncle Rico).
