"Producing together for the first time, Rachel Neuburger and kef productions challenged up–and–coming playwrights to create three original comedic pieces focused on the holidays. The result is 'Tis the @#$%-ing Season; a hilarious, edgy and insightful evening of theatre hosted by two–time OOBR Award Recipient Rob Maitner," according to press notes.

The three plays presented each evening are:

The First Annual St. Ignatius Chanukah Pageant, a musical by Williams/Rogers/Williams (Fleet Week – Best Musical, 2005 FringeNYC), directed by Jordana Williams

Rachel Neuburger most recently served as the Artistic Director for The Summer Play Festival 2004 and 2005. Other producing credits include 3 Dark Tales, Texarkana Waltz and The Moonlight Room. kef productions is an independent producing company that helps small theatre companies and individual artists produce singular works.
