TRAILER PARK BOYS Returning to Playhouse Square, 12/13

Ricky, Julian and Bubbles are back on tour, but this time they're not alone - Mr. Lahey and Randy will be there in all their drunken glory as the TRAILER PARK BOYS return to Playhouse Square's Connor Palace Sunday, Dec. 13 for one 8 pm show of their DEAR SANTA TOUR. (Tickets go on sale Fri., June 26 are $56.50. $46.50, $36.50 & $29. All prices increase by $5 day-of-show. On sale at playhousesquare.org, 216-241-6000 or at the Ticket Office.)

When Bubbles tries to spread the true meaning of Christmas to the world, his good-hearted plans are botched by Julian, cashing in on the festive season, and Ricky's relentless pursuit of the real Santa. If that wasn't enough, all three must deal with the very intoxicated Jim Lahey and his cheeseburger- eating sidekick, Randy.

For the uninitiated, Trailer Park Boys began as a Canadian sitcom TV series, created and directed by Mike Clattenburg, that focuses on the misadventures of a group of trailer park residents, some of whom are ex-convicts, living in the fictional Sunnyvale Trailer Park in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia.
