It's "Fargo" meets "A Christmas Carol" (without the wood chipper or the Cratchits). The sequel to the smash hit musical comedy, Don't Hug Me. On Christmas Eve in Bunyan Bay, Minnesota, the cantankerous bar owner Gunner Johnson gets in an argument with his wife, Clara, tells her he's skipping Christmas, and storms out to go snowmobiling across the lake. He falls through the ice on his skidoo and goes into a coma. He then comes back to the bar in his dream, where he's visited by the famous folk legend, Sven Yorgensen, who plays the ghost of Christmas past, present, and future. Sven takes Gunner on a journey similar to Dickens' "A Christmas Carol"--only very different.

With their marriage crumbling, a husband and wife acting team try to hold their family's theater company together long enough to get legendary film director Frank Capra to cast them in his film remake of The Scarlet Pimpernel. But between a pregnant ingénue and a surprise visit from their daughter, things go horribly and comically wrong. Moon Over Buffalo is a fast-paced farce that ran for more than 300 performances on Broadway and was written by Ken Ludwig who created the hit comedy Lend me a Tenor. Learn More

It's a version of "A Christmas Carol" set in a bar in Minnesota, with 17 original songs. The play is fast-moving and funny, the songs are great, and there's a reception with the cast & crew afterward with beer and snacks. What could be better?

This is a truly lighthearted and funny show. And, the audience was invited to the green room after the show to meet the cast and have refreshments. A guesture I always love.

a very unique and fun take on a classic story. I took my two teens 16 and 17 year olds and they had a really good time. Much to their surprise...

We loved the entire evening. Thought the actors were terrific, the set was great, and the story very entertaining. After the show, the actors invited the audience backstage for refreshments, and we thought that was a great touch. Would like to see more like this one.
