GroundWorks Theatre presents the gentle comedy, Christmas on the Pecos,

written by company founder Robert A. O*Connell (December 4-20).  On

Christmas Eve, two modern cowboys, sheltering from a storm, find

themselves host to a couple seeking protection from the storm and the

law.  The arrival of Angel Vasquez and Rosa, his very pregnant wife, is

soon followed by a man who thinks he just might be Santa Claus, two

members of the U.S. Border Patrol and one amazing angel, who all make

this a most memorable holy night.
