ComedySportz is proud to present A Very Special Ladies and Gentlemen Christmas Special — a fully-improvised musical comedy for the holidays! 

Every night, the players combine your suggestions with live music and the spirit of such holiday classics as White Christmas, Miracle On 34th Street, and It’s A Wonderful Life. A Very Special Ladies and Gentlemen Christmas Special uses this recipe to whip-up a brand new musical with all the charming characters, hummable tunes and warm feelings you expect from a holiday show.

Every song, every joke, every cup of nog, every dreidel spin, every stolen kiss under the mistletoe while her father isn’t looking is completely made-up on the spot for your enjoyment.

Come celebrate the holidays with A Very Special Ladies and Gentlemen Christmas Special! And who knows, maybe you’ll learn the true meaning of Christmas! (Hint: It’s not fruitcake.)
