The Christmas Angel

A family tale hosted by Oliva Newton-John and Chip Davis, over music by Mannheim Steamroller, The Christmas Angel tells the story of a decorative angel that 'is stolen from the top of a village Christmas tree by an evil villain the night before Christmas.The villagers and their children cannot celebrate Christmas until the angel is found and replaced atop the tree.

The story is a classic tale of good triumphing over evil told in an enchanting way with world champion ice skaters portraying the characters. It is set the night before Christmas Eve when all the presents are under the village tree. The children are excited as they go home to bed. When all is quiet and the clock strikes midnight, the toys come to life one more time before they become presents for the children. Snowmen, gingerbread men, toy soldiers and many more dance around the Village Square.

But an evil presence arrives bent on destroying everyone's happiness and steals the angel from the tree. He knows that without the angel protecting the magic of the tree the children will have no gifts when they wake up. Dorothy, one of the mothers, follows the evil into the Netherworld to try to rescue the angel so that Christmas will not be spoiled and the children will get their gifts. The toys begin to cry and the angel is frightened by the mischievous Gargon but Dorothy leads them to battle with the evil and turns him to good.

They all re-enter the village through a tunnel of light and Christmas is saved.
