Ross to play Christmas in the Clouds
"Christmas in the Clouds," the first romantic comedy set in American Indian country, opens at the Mary Riepma Ross Media Arts Center on Dec. 2.
Star and co-producer Sheila Tousey and co-producer Brian Westcott will attend the opening weekend of the movie at the Ross. Tousey and Westcott will be available for a question and answer session with the audience of the 7 p.m. Dec. 3 screening.
"Christmas in the Clouds" follows "Ray" as he moves from the city to become the new manager of his tribe's struggling ski resort. Convinced that a beautiful hotel guest named "Tina" is an incognito critic for the exclusive 'Worthington Travel Guide,' Ray sets out to garner a good review.
However, the guest - actually a Mohawk Indian - has come to the resort hoping to find the man with whom she's been exchanging romantic e-mail.
When she mistakenly confuses the over-solicitous Ray for her amorous pen pal, the comedy of errors kicks into high gear. Especially when the real critic arrives and encounters the hotel's vegetarian chef who whips up fabulous meals for his guests, then kills their appetites by telling them the pet names and life stories of the animals they are eating. Add to the mix chambermaids who insist on bringing their children to work, a resident handyman who constantly hits on the ski bunnies and Ray's father, the retired chief, who just wants to win the new Jeep Cherokee at the big holiday bingo contest.
As Ray and Tina set out to charm each other, they begin to fall in love.
Show times are available online www.TheRoss.org or by calling 472-5353.
