 The Ho, Ho, Ho Show is a pastiche of holiday songs - some familiar, some created with tongue firmly in cheek and double entendre abounding . This holiday revue is a pure delight with songs like "Mrs. Clauses Lament," and "Chia Pet," and classics like "Carol of the Bells," which proves to be deadly. 

December 7th - 17th
