Winthrop Playmakers to Present THE EIGHT: REINDEER MONOLOGUES, 12/6 & 8

This December join the Winthrop Playmakers as they present a unique comedy for the season- THE EIGHT: Reindeer Monologues, by Jeff Goode. Please note this show is not intended for children.

Described by the Los Angeles Times as "wickedly funny for those who can drop their defenses," THE EIGHT is a dark Christmas comedy. Scandal erupts at the North Pole when one of Santa's eight tiny reindeer accuses him of sexual harassment. As mass media descends upon the event, the other members of the sleigh team demand to share their perspectives, and a horrific tale of corruption and perversion emerges, which seems to implicate everyone from the littlest elf to the tainted Saint himself. With each deer's confession, the truth behind the shocking allegations becomes clearer and clearer...and murkier and murkier.

THE EIGHT is directed by Nathan Fogg, with a cast featuring Brian Dion, Christopher Hagberg, Katie Higgins, Bobby Imperato, Anthony Internicola, Katie Moore, Laura Scherf, and Ken Vining. Performances are December 6 and 7 at 8:00PM, and December 8 at 3:00PM. Tickets are $15, and can be purchased by visiting our website www.winthropplaymakers.com or by calling 617-539-1175.
