Ever felt the pressure of the holiday season crushing you like a filbert in a nutcracker? The Arts Club Theatre Company can relate. Catch The Day Before Christmas at the Goldcorp Stage at the BMO Theatre Centre from November 24 to December 24 if you need a little reprieve from the pressure of the season.
Live-theatre veteran Jennifer Clement plays Alex, a perfectionist and control freak who is hellbent on holding on to her Christmas traditions. Juggling career and family, she spins hilariously out of control in this comedy theatre production, perfect for the season.
Playwrights Stacey Kaser and Alison Kelly tell us this, “We both wondered why it is that women feel so pressured to create the ‘perfect’ Christmas for their families, even when nobody really knows what that is, and we hope audiences recognize themselves in Alex and her family,” says Kelly.
See? You’re not alone. Christmas can make crazy out of the best of us.
Tickets start at $29. Call the Arts Club Box Office at 604.687.1644 or visit www.artsclub.com.
