Holiday Story Time at 4th Wall will feature well-known Houston actors reading from several lesser-known Christmas stories. Released in four installments on Thursdays night in December, this series features stories that are festive, heartwarming, silly, and surprising. Each episode will also feature a special appearance from the big man himself – that’s right, Santa Claus! – reminding viewers of the importance of kindness and generosity.
