Join us as we "pre-game" our upcoming 30th anniversary by bringing back a tale from Christmas past, "Comrades' Christmas Carol" Like a Holiday Revenant Risen from the Grave: MadLab resurrects a Golden Oldie that we trust isn’t as Moldy as dear dead Marley’s moneybags. Like the "Ghost of Christmas Presents" risen up from the dead, "Comrades' Christmas Carol" comes back to tickle and tantalize. It's a holiday show for people who don't like holiday shows. And one for those who do. After his successful early career is torpedoed by Joe McCarthy’s political machinations, director Maxx Karlsson makes his final stand with a ridiculously radical (radically ridiculous?) reinterpretation of Charles Dickens’ holiday classic as a not-so-covert Communist manifesto. As if on cue: hilarity, insanity and, yes, tragedy ensue. Comrades’ is the perfect holiday show for people who don’t like holiday shows. And maybe even more so for those who do. Originally staged in 1998, as MadLab prepares to enter its fourth decade, it’s time to run amok with the holiday spirit(s) again. "Comrades' Christmas Carol" runs Fridays and Saturdays December 6 through December 21. MadLab.net for tickets. #MadLab #BeOriginal #ComradesChristmasCarol #ArtMakesCbus #CbusMakesArt
