My Kind Of Christmas

    This sentimental yet kooky Christmas play is guaranteed to resonate with many people. Rather than lean in heavily on the "Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year" trope, Hall adds a layer of pain that is familiar. Holidays can be tough for many people, and Hall does a great job of dissecting it through this family without losing the "Christmas magic" written into the play. Well done!

    11/29/2024. To say that I had the pleasure of seeing MY KIND OF CHRISTMAS with Palos Village Players would be an understatement. This wonderful play by Dana Hall is heartwarming and funny, and it is destined to become a holiday classic.

    Christmas changes at different stages of our life and Hall provides some cheer to figure out how to meld old traditions with new. The twists of farce and poignancy are combined in a rare holiday treat of belly laughs and the tug of heartstrings. Carollers, ghosts and ugly Christmas sweaters deck these halls and gives the play a merry jingle. It’s a Christmas confection for all.
