BOB'S HOLIDAY OFFICE PARTY! Returns to Pico Playhouse, Now thru 12/21

Pico Playhouse presents Bob's Holiday Office Party! L.A.'s most "hilariously deranged" (Los Angeles Times) seasonal tradition is back for its 19th year! Bob's Holiday Office Party runs from tonight, December 6th through Sunday, December 21st.

Every year, insurance agent Bob Finhead's whacked out friends and clients stop by his small-town Iowa office for their annual holiday bash. The town mayor, the sheriff, the twin farmers, the stoner, the town floozy and the pastor's wife have already RSVPed for this year's event. But Bob has dreams of a bigger life and wants to escape their narrow-minded thinking. Will he be able to fulfill his dream of becoming a professional inventor and move to the big city, or will he come to realize how much he is the heart and soul of the town? Will any of this matter once the party stars, the bickering and fighting begins, and the drinks hit the floor?

Performances play the Pico Playhouse 10508 West Pico Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90064, running Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 8pm, Sundays at 7pm. General seating will be $20 on Thursdays and Sundays or $25 on Fridays and Saturdays. For reservations or more information, visit www.plays411.com/bobs2014.
