About
Jinkx Monsoon and BenDeLaCreme bring their long-running holiday show back with new songs, fresh gags and full camp spectacle.
This is the rare holiday show written fresh every year rather than dusted off, which is why its audience keeps coming back for a plot they cannot predict. DeLaCreme directs, writes and produces, and Monsoon can genuinely sing, so the numbers are not a drag approximation of singing. If recovering from family calls for something loud, filthy and warm-hearted, book one of the two nights.
What to expect
Two hours with an intermission on the City Center Mainstage. Expect original songs, oversized costumes, choreography, quick changes, and a running narrative built new for this edition rather than recycled from the tour's earlier years. The tone is camp and adult but affectionate rather than mean-spirited.
Good to know
- City Center is on West 55th between Sixth and Seventh; the F to 57th St or the N/Q/R/W to 57th-Seventh Ave are closest.
- Estimated running time is two hours with one intermission.
- The humor is adult; this is not a show to bring young children to.
- The Access Club offers flat-rate tickets to anyone forty and under who registers online.
- VIP add-ons are sold separately through the artists' own site rather than the City Center box office.
- Group sales are available for parties of ten or more.
Going? Keep it.
