This critically acclaimed one-actor show takes place at Christmas present and past, as David (a guy so obsessed with sustaining his kids belief in Santa he's developed a long list of rules everyone in the family must follow) appears with a wooden box of "historical artifacts" to deliver a whopping, holiday roller-coaster of a tale. This charmer of a play, told in a single act, is about Christmas, magic, the perils of parenthood and the beautiful backfires that come from simply loving each other -- Santa or no Santa. What does any of this have to do with polar bears? One thing for certain: it's not what you're expecting.
