ROAST YOUR CHESTNUTS, a new solo comedy written and performed by Tanya Dickson and directed by Ashley Karp, will make its debut at the 2026 Hollywood Fringe Festival. Performances will take place at Hobgoblin Playhouse on Gardner in Hollywood.
The 45-minute production follows an irreverent version of Mrs. Claus as she steps out from behind the scenes of the North Pole and into the spotlight. Combining character comedy, stand-up, and holiday cabaret, the show centers on a glamorously unraveling Mrs. Claus confronting her marriage, holiday traditions, and her next act as an aspiring influencer.
The show presents “Bad Mrs. Claus 2.0,” offering comedic commentary on holiday culture while blending storytelling, audience interaction, and cabaret-style performance.
Written and performed by Tanya Dickson and directed by Ashley Karp, the production is described as a mix of festive satire and solo character comedy.
