Synopsis

THE STORY: A church Christmas program spins hilariously out of control in this Southern farce about squabbling sisters, family secrets, a surly Santa, a vengeful sheep and a reluctant Elvis impersonator.

It's Christmas-time in the small tow

Press Reviews

"A lighthearted farce that takes audiences on a whirlwind tour of dysfunctional families, outrageous misunderstandings, and a Christmas play that seems destined for disaster."

— DC Theater Arts
