After a wildly successful transfer to Off-Broadway in 2011, EndTimes Productions once again returns to Off-Broadway with the 7th Annual NAKED HOLIDAYS. Previews of this flesh-filled evening of non-traditional holiday mischief, music and merriment begins November 29 at The Cutting Room. Opening night is slated for December 7.
NAKED HOLIDAYS is a darkly comic Yuletide bacchanalia of theater, music and burlesque. This boisterous holiday celebration puts a bawdy spin on some of our best-loved winter traditions. With all-new musical numbers and sketches, as well as the traditional full-monty closer, "The Naked People Play", Naked Holidays is sure to deliver more holiday cheer than you've felt since puberty. Highlights include:
• Christmas Village of the Damned: One infected elf spreads a zombie plague through Santa's workshop, threatening all the beloved characters of Christmas Village.
• A Very Paula Deen Hannukah: As part of her sensitivity training, Ms. Deen bakes latkas under the guidance of Rabbi Hirschfeld.
•Total Eclipse of the Heart: While Santa is away delivering toys, a lonely and frustrated Mrs. Claus indulges her darkest fantasies.
