The E(Xmas)ist is a holiday parody that brings a comedic twist to the classic horror tale involving a young girl named Regan, played by Rashna "Rashi" Sarwar, who accidentally summons the evil spirit Krampus. Her mother, Chris, portrayed by Melissa Beckwith, seeks help from Santa Claus, played by Joey Urreta, and together they attempt to rescue Regan before it's too late. Directed by Brandy Joe Plambeck, the cast also features Richard Payton as Krampus and Justin Bugeja as Damien Tinselbottom, promising a hilarious showdown filled with Christmas spirit. This production runs from December 6 to December 22, 2024, at The Ringwald Theatre in Ferndale, MI.
