A Night of Laughter
Produced by Danny Browning of Laughing Dad Entertainment
Louisville has produced its share of legends, and on one unforgettable November evening, two of its finest take the stage at the historic Little Colonel Players in Pewee Valley. Mike Nilson has been writing and performing stand-up comedy since 1982, touring professionally throughout the US, Canada, and the Caribbean; and somehow, after all that mileage, he still makes it feel like the first time. Tom Mabe, the nationally recognized comedian and prank call pioneer, has made millions laugh with a brand of comedy that is equal parts brilliant and beautifully unhinged. Together, these two Kentucky originals bring decades of hard-won stagecraft to one of the most charming venues in the Bluegrass. This is not just a comedy show. It is a celebration of what happens when a community produces greatness and then gets to claim it as its own. Don’t miss the night Pewee Valley gets LOUD!Rated PG-16
Tickets $30 (includes 2 beers, 2 wines or soft drinks) November 7, 2026 Show at 7:30 | Doors open at 6:30

Bear stumbles upon Mouse on his way to the creek for a drink. Instead of eating Mouse, they become friends. Mouse learns that Bear must hibernate for the winter and figures out that Bear will miss Christmas.

This is an interactive show where kids get to answer questions.
A Magic Christmas
By Faye D. Julian
Directed by Morgan Schussler-Williams
There has always been something magical about Christmas—from that very first Christmas when a new star appeared in the East to Christmases today when toys mysteriously appear in stockings and under trees, and hearts turn warm. This one-act play for children shows a very special Christmas for Miss Annie Belle, who hasn’t had a truly merry Christmas in many years. Now, running out of money, this may be her worst. She keeps wishing for a white Christmas. She’s really good hearted—just a bit selfish. She is so lonely that she talks to her plants and a dilapidated old doll whose head keeps falling off. A series of strange events, aided by the poinsettia, the holly plant and the doll, give Miss Annie her chance to prove the goodness of her heart.
December 19 and 20 @ 2:00 Tickets $12 for everyone
Hound of the Baskervilles
By Tim Kelly
Directed by Jay Padilla-Hayter
Holmes’ most spine-chilling mystery is placed in a modern setting in this version – with suspense, humor, and terror. Sir Henry is heir to the vast Baskerville fortune, a legacy that comes with a family curse: death at the fangs of a horror that prowls the moor. Only Holmes can stop the beast. While mysterious lights signal Baskerville Hall and the hound terrifies the countryside, the sleuthing begins and suspicion falls on sinister servants, butterfly collectors, ladies in distress, and escaped convicts. Who wrote the letter that summoned the hound? Is Sir Henry’s romance with the lovely Kathy doomed? Is the supernatural at work? May 13, 14, 15 @ 7:30pm, May 16 @2:00pm
