YULETIDE

Plaid Santas: During Christmas week, “Forever Plaid� at the Canon Theatre in Beverly Hills is offering tickets at half price (subject to availability) to patrons who take an unwrapped toy (minimum value of $5) to the box office. The toys will be turned over to a pediatric AIDS and cancer center and to poverty-level families. Meanwhile, from now until year’s end, the Plaids are entertaining audiences with Christmas carol encores, complete with falling snow, after the regular show.
