Marcus Truschinski and Kelsey Brennan in "The Gift of the Magi," American Players Theatre, 2021.

This musical adaptation of an O. Henry short story, by James DeVita and Josh Schmidt, was originally staged about a decade back, and during several following holiday seasons by APT. Isthmus critic Gwendolyn Rice says this year's production of The Gift of the Magi makes is “a delightful combination of nostalgia, wonder and affirmation.” Returning to the roles of Jim and Della are Marcus Truschinski and Kelsey Brennan; Malkia Stampley takes over the director's chair. ALSO: Friday (1 p.m.), Saturday (1 and 6 p.m.) and Sunday (1 p.m.), Dec. 17-19.
