The Ultimate Christmas Show (abridged)
by Reed Martin & Austin Tichenor
Directed by Robert May
Produced by Ted Leib & Kevin “Blax” Burroughs
Oceanside Theatre Company is now accepting submissions for The Ultimate Christmas Show (abridged), to run December 8 through December 24 at The Brooks Theater in Oceanside, California. NON-UNION.
PLAY SYNOPSIS
All faiths are welcome to the Annual Holiday Variety Show and Christmas Pageant at St. Everybody’s Non-Denominational Universalist Church, where we’ll believe anything. Unfortunately, none of the acts scheduled to perform have arrived, so three members are pressed into service to perform the entire Variety Show and Christmas Pageant by themselves. An irreverent yet heartwarming trip through the holidays, The Ultimate Christmas Show (abridged) by Reed Martin & Austin Tichenor is festive, funny, physical, family fun as these Three Wise Guys send up and celebrate our favorite holiday traditions.
CHARACTER BREAKDOWN
3 actor/singers, ages 18 to 70. All genders and ethnicities encouraged to submit.
Actors will play their selves in a heightened and physically demanding pace. There will be multiple costume changes and handling of numerous props. Any musical instrument experience will be valued but is not mandatory.
