Every day is Christmas in Christmastown! When Allie wakes up in this strange Hallmark movie of a town, she must decide whether to stay with strangely-attractive movie boyfriend Lance, or return to her real life in Kansas City. Nothing a little hot chocolate can't cure, right?

    It's a rare script that can make me laugh out loud in the reading of it, but it's spoke straight to the holiday-cynic in me. Hysterical, it masterfully skewers all the holiday movie tropes, without becoming one itself. I hope to see it on stage more.

    This play is hilarious and charming! I recommend this play for anyone who enjoys hallmark movies but knows of their flaws and tropes.

    A very funny parody of cable network Christmas romantic comedies, with lots of scope for actors to play with over-the-top humor and heart. I recently saw a successful outdoor production by Ixion Ensemble in Lansing, Michigan.

ALLIE: 30s. A cynic with a good heart. Hates Christmas.
EVE: Any age. The town’s greeter and chief hot chocolate pusher.
LANCE: 30s. The quintessential movie boyfriend, handsome and kind-hearted.
MRS. HARRIS: 50+. The best Christmas grandmother ever.
