Seating begins: 8 p.m. • Program: 8:45 p.m.

NOTE: This year we’re shifting our location to the top level of the Community Bookshelf Parking Garage, just across Baltimore Avenue from the Central Library

George Henderson (John Lithgow) and family accidentally hit a Sasquatch with their car on a trip through the forest, then opt to bring it home. Keeping Bigfoot in their house a secret presents big problems, but the mythical creature soon reveals itself to be more of a gentle giant than a hairy terror.
