OY! To the World ~ Christmas With a Twist!

OY! To the World ~ Christmas With a Twist! showcases these brilliant Jewish songwriters who helped shape the modern-day Christmas that everyone knows and celebrates. In this new musical comedy, Shelly Abrams has inherited a shuttered Catskills lodge. He has high hopes of bringing it back with a big holiday show, like the ones his Grandparents used to stage. He has fond childhood memories of holiday celebrations at the lodge which mixed Hanukkah with other traditions. He gathers his three most talented friends from The Big Apple and an ageless accompanist that came with the place, and together they provide a mix of cultures to rekindle the spirit of the place with a show called Christmas With A Twist, seeking to recreate the warmth, love, and laughter that once filled the hall in its heyday.
The Goddamn Couple Down the Hall (Oh…., and Merry Christmas!)
November 8- December 15
What promises to be a beautiful day spent with loved ones gets turned on its head by the goddamn couple down the hall, Lucinda and Kenny, who clearly hate each other, and whose screaming matches – funny and foul-mouthed — can be heard loud and clear by the Woodruffs. When things down the hall suddenly go quiet, the Woodruffs wonder if that means Kenny and Lucinda have kissed and made up. Or could there be foul play? The family is divided on whether they should investigate. Is it better to let sleeping dogs lie or should they dig in and try to unravel what actually happened between their feuding neighbors?
