William Lee Martin: The Nutcracker - A Christmas Stand Up Spectacular is truly a first in the stand-up comedy world.

The hour is dedicated to talking all things Christmas including traditions, holiday stress, the pitfalls of having family over, and wraps up with an epic story of giving a unique, ultimate gift to his wife in this one-of-a-kind stand-up special that is funny, heartwarming, and smart.
