For the eighth consecutive year, Space 55 presents a holiday musical for people who hate the holidays and musicals, "A Bloody Mary Christmas."

Space 55 will open its new venue, a 49 seat theatre located at 1524 N. 18th Ave. in Phoenix with "A Bloody Mary Christmas" written by Denny Guge, Jacque Arend, Shawna Franks and Stacey Reed.

This is the 8th straight year this show has run, proving to be a holiday favorite, despite it's rather raunchy take on the season. This material would be considered R-rated.

Sun City retirees Blanche, Bertha and Mabel sing, dance and drink themselves silly as they battle a heartless homeowner's association that tries to evict them from their condo on Christmas Eve.

CAST:

BERTHA - Lidia Lei Koelbel & Riva Figueroa
MABEL - Julie Silverstein & RC Contreras
BLANCHE - Anne Sanford & Sasha Wordlaw
MR. VANDERHOFF - Brian Flesher & Doug Waldo

Performances of "A Bloody Mary Christmas" are November 24 - December 30 Wednesdays through Saturdays at 8:00 pm and Sundays at 2 pm and 7 pm. Special Holiday Week Additional Performances: Saturday Dec 23 at 4:00 pm; Dec 26, 27, 28, and 29 at 8:00 pm and Dec 30 at 4:00 pm. (Please note: There are no performances on Dec. 6 or 7. Check website for complete performance schedule.)

Tickets start at $15 and are on sale at www.space55.org or at the door. Special discounts on Dec 10 Matinee for Sun City Residents ($10) on Dec 15 for ASU Students and on Dec 17 anyone who wears an Ugly Sweater get $5 off tickets.

"Due to high demand for tickets, we wanted to expand our performance schedule without asking our actors to sacrifice their own holidays," says Artistic Director Duane Daniels. "The 2 cast solution will work great and be a really interesting experiment."
