Glitter, Pom Poms & Fleece, Oh My! TONY N' TINA'S WEDDING to Host Ugly Holiday Sweater Performance

What do you get when you combine yarn pom-poms, fleece ornaments and loads and loads of glitter? An Ugly Christmas Sweater, of course!

The cast of Tony n' Tina's Wedding, Chicago's interactive comedy production playing at Chicago Theater Works, 1113 W. Belmont, is getting in the holiday spirit by inviting guests to their Ugly Holiday Sweater Extravaganza at 4 p.m. Saturday, December 16.

Whether it is a hand-me-down from grandma or a personalized DIY, Tony and Tina encourage guests to wear their best (or worst) ugly holiday sweater to participate in an ugly sweater contest during the performance.

During this one-day special holiday production, guests will experience the classic, interactive Tony n' Tina's Wedding performance, from the I do's at a real church, to the full Italian-style buffet dinner and bouquet toss. Guests will begin with the ceremony at Resurrection Church, 3309 North Seminary Ave., with a full meal and reception immediately following just one block away at Vinnie Black's Coliseum (Chicago Theater Works), right in the heart of the Belmont Theatre District.
