MET to Present THE LAST HURRAH'S VERY SERIAL CHRISTMAS SPECIAL, 12/21

The podcast no one is talking about is about to take on the podcast that everyone is talking about. On December 21 at 7 p.m. the Maryland Ensemble Theatre (MET) will present The Last Hurrah's Very Serial Christmas Special. Based on the podcast Serial, from Sarah Koenig and This American Life, The Last Hurrah will put a live, comedic, Christmas spin on the true crime show. Join reporter Sarah Koenig (portrayed by Lisa Burl) as she investigates Adnan Syed's (Giovanni Kavota) claim that a big man in red named Kris Kringle can prove his innocence. It's the story of one journalist's quest to find solid evidence that Santa Claus exists and whether convicted criminal Adnan Syed is on the naughty or nice list. The Last Hurrah's Very Serial Christmas Special is a one-time special event
