A Charlie Brown Christmas has been a mainstay of the holiday season for many years. Based on the famous characters from the creative mind of Charles M. Schultz, it is presented annually as a television special. It was later adapted for the stage, much to the repeated delight of audiences and production companies throughout North America.

Collins has been directing theatres performances with children for years. Cumberland Performing Arts uses the Oxford Theatre as its home stage.
