-----------------------------------

Macey Maid-a-Milking seems to be the only person in all of Christmastown to sense that something strange is going on; toys are coming out wrong, soldiers are out in force, and there must be an awful lot of naughty children, because coal production is higher than ever. Driven by a mission to keep the holiday alive, she soon finds herself in a lot of trouble - with the future of Christmas hanging in the balance.

------------------------------------

This Kansas City tradition was created by the team variously responsible for other type hits like The Ballad of Lefty & Crabbe, Ben Auxier's Musical Cavalcade of Fears, and the Friend Dog Studios web series.

Written by Brian Huther, Ben Auxier, Seth Macchi, and Ryan McCall.
Directed by Vanessa Severo and Rusty Sneary
Music Director Ryan McCall
Choroegraphy by Ashley Personett
Starring Elise Poehling, Francisco Javier Villegas, Bobe Linebarger, Enjoli Gavin Rudd, Mike Ott, Nellie Maple, Hollis Wilhoit, and Ben Auxier.

--------------------------------------

"It's a non-stop laugh riot...judging by the audience reaction, Milking Christmas should become an annual holiday tradition, and I wouldn't be surprised if it becomes a favorite in cities across the country." - PerformINK

"Keeps the audience laughing from beginning to end." - KC Applauds

"Fresh, delightfully funny, well-scripted, chock full of interesting characters." - KC Applauds

"Chalk up another original musical that deserves a future. The creators and the group of actors they’ve attracted for this and their previous show are formidably talented." - KC Studio
