Combined Artform's Matthew Quinn will be producing a series of four theatrical offerings at Theatre Asylum in Hollywood as a part of an inaugural Holiday Theatre Festival in the renowned Theatre Row venues from December 5-24, 2014. The Festival aims to bring in shows previously produced by Quinn as well as shows previously unproduced at Theatre Asylum to give the Los Angeles theatre community an exciting opportunity to branch out from traditional seasonal plays and celebrate a diverse range of eclectic holiday entertainment.

Shows on stage in this year's Festival are as follows (in alphabetical order): The Latina Christmas Special with 9 performances, playing 12/5-12/21; The Santa Closet with 3 performances, playing 12/18-12/21; Telenovela Wives of Pancho Villa with 6 performances, playing 12/5-12/20; Wonderful Life with 7 performances, playing 12/6-12/24.

Also new for Holiday Festival theatre-goers is a Festival Package option that offers discounts to patrons seeking to attend all of the Festival's shows. With the purchase of the Holiday Festival Package, Festival patrons will save on single tickets to all of the Festival's shows. Ticket prices per show range from $10-$25. Some shows may individually offer discount codes for special performances, but patrons wishing to see multiple shows are encouraged to purchase the Festival Package. Visit www.theatreasylum-la.com for more information and to purchase the Package.
