Overview
The irreverent Christmas musical comedy back by popular demand!
For mature audiences
Deck the halls…trailer park style! Set in the delightfully tacky town of Armadillo Acres, Florida, this hilarious holiday musical features a motley crew of feisty yet lovable townsfolk.With temperatures lowering and tinsel trees erected, the trailer park’s quirky inhabitants wrestle with family drama, romantic hijinks, and a sleigh-full of holiday chaos, made even more complicated by the sudden arrival of an unexpected visitor who threatens to upend the festivities. Adorned with outrageous humor, toe-tapping country-rock songs, and plenty of yuletide cheer, this fast-paced musical delivers big laughs and proves that underneath the tinsel and the southern twang lies a heartfelt reminder that even the most unconventional families can find love, forgiveness, and joy.
