Join the wise-cracking, lip-smacking, attitude-talking puppets, Hampton & La Kwinta as they celebrate the holiday season with a ghettofied-Muppet-inspired Christmas musical. The illustrious Mrs. Claus bares her spoken word skills as Flava Ice & the Sorbets tear the house down with their new single 'Shaved Ice Tonight.' A gassy reindeer, bible-thumping old ladies, & crazy relatives round out this sarcastic & whimsical pop culture free-for-all.
