A NICE FAMILY CHRISTMAS

The holidays are merry. The family? Not so much.

It’s Christmas Eve, and one Midwestern family is about to discover that the holidays can bring out the best - and the absolute worst - in everyone! When newspaper reporter Carl is tasked with writing a story about a typical family Christmas to save his job, he heads home to his recently widowed mother, eccentric grandmother, unpredictable uncle, and squabbling siblings. But when family secrets start spilling out and everyone discovers Carl’s plans to share their private lives with the world, the holiday gathering spirals into hilarious chaos. Written by one of our favorite playwrights, Phil Olson, A Nice Family Christmas is packed with outrageous characters, awkward moments, and plenty of family drama. Because sometimes the people who drive you craziest are the ones who make Christmas unforgettable!
