‘A Mayberry Christmas:’ Y Drama Team brings beloved characters back, times two
It’s Christmas Eve in idyllic Mayberry, but old Ben Weaver is feeling like Scrooge. The fictional shop owner is determined that Sheriff Andy Taylor and Deputy Barney Fife must lock up Sam Muggins for transgressions Weaver takes exception to. Andy, on the other hand, thinks a little human kindness is in order on this special night. What ensues — enacted by the YMCA Drama Team Nov. 18-19 at Rent Auditorium in Columbus — is a heartwarming prelude to the season.
