Every Christmas Story Ever Told (And Then Some)
Fountain Hills Theater presents the hilarious Holiday romp, Every Christmas Story Ever Told (And Then Some). Instead of performing Charles Dickens’ holiday classic for the umpteenth time, three actors decide to perform every Christmas story ever told in an irreverent look at holiday classics and traditions. Santa Claus, Rudolph, the Grinch, and just about every other seasonal character, make an appearance in this comedy that will have you laughing all the way to the New Year!
At the top of Every Christmas Story Ever Told (And Then Some) a man is clearly beginning a performance of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol. He is quickly interrupted by his two actor buddies who refuse to perform A Christmas Carol for the hundredth time in their careers. Claiming that they only do it “for the insurance” the actors lead a mutiny and instead decide to present every Christmas story ever told. Over the course of the next 90 minutes the audience is called upon to help these three comedic actors as they portray as many holiday stories and characters as they can remember. Using crazy costumes, special effects and, of course, their wits, they visit such stories as The Grinch Who Stole Christmas, The Gift of the Magi, Frosty the Snowman, Holidays in Sweden, and everything in between.
Parental Note: There is a lengthy discussion of whether Santa Claus exists, but it is decided eventually that he does. Rating: If it were a movie, Every Christmas Story Ever Told would be rated “PG.
