L.A. Christmas Comedy SANTASIA Returns to St. Luke's for the Holidays

SANTASIA, L.A.'s hilarious holiday musical sketch comedy show that embraces and skewers all the iconic moments of the Christmas season is returning to St. Luke's Theatre, (308 West 46th Street) in Manhattan tonight, December 13th, through December 28th.

Created by brothers Shaun and BRandon Loeser and directed by Shaun Loeser, the critically acclaimed seasonal sensation has run for over 13 years in Los Angeles and is jam packed with a biting blend of yuletide snark and sentiment. For more about the show, visit www.santasia.com.

SANTASIA's relentless assault on your holiday funny-bone will have you hurting from laughter. Stocking stuffed with everything from dysfunctional family sketches to charm, wit, love and beautiful sentiment, it conjures up memories of your own Christmas past. The hysterical holiday classic has been compared to the "Carol Burnett Show", "Kids in the Hall", "In Living Color", and "Saturday Night Live".

Santasia is appropriate for children ages 13 and over due to strong language. Children under the age of 4 are not permitted in the theatre.

Dynamic choreography, on-point holiday parody, side splitting sketch comedy, and classic Rankin and Bass-inspired Claymation movies, this multi-media Santasia is the fresh face of Vaudeville Comedy.
