We wanted to share this with you on KZfaq during this surreal time of Covid-19 and hope it brings a little fun and diversion to you and your family this holiday season--until we are able to bring an updated version in a fully fleshed-out production to a theater near you (whenever theater can happen again).

SHOW SYNOPSIS:
It’s Christmas Eve and SALLY is feeling ignored by her parents since the recent arrival of her baby brother. When a blizzard carries SALLY to a magical land, she meets three new friends: DRYCLEAN ONLY (a snowman with “snow-for-brains”), CANDY (a candy cane with a less-than-sweet disposition), and ANTLER (a scaredy-cat reindeer). They set out on a journey to warn THE WIZARD OF CLAUS about the havoc the mischievous KRAMPUS--and her bumbling ICE MITES--are wreaking on this magical land. Will they make it in time?!
