WHO KILLED SANTA CLAUS? YOU DECIDE!
That’s the question the residents of Mistletoe Falls have to answer in this all-new chapter in the hit “Christmas in Mistletoe Falls” series, a hilariously irreverent musical skewering of TV Christmas movies from a guy that writes a lot of them.

The denizens of Mistletoe Falls have been through a lot! At first, it seemed to be the kind of place that only existed in one of those cheesy TV Christmas movies; a place where everyone loves the holidays, the girl always gets the guy, and there’s always a happy ending. It was nice, but not exactly “real.” Some magical help from Santa helped them keep the good stuff and get rid of the bad stuff and it seemed like they were all ready to live happily ever after. But the lure of cheesy TV Christmas movies is strong and before they know it, things started to go back to old ways that they thought they had left behind, driven there, in part, by a dastardly version of Mrs. Claus!

But they worked it all out and everyone thought they were going to live happily ever after. Little did they know that murder was on it’s way to Mistletoe Falls and it is time for Santa to meet his maker!

So, who killed Santa Claus? That’s up to you! The audience gets to vote at intermission and then we’ll change the ending based on what you decide!

Screenwriter Rick Garman has written nearly two dozen holiday films for networks like Hallmark Channel and Great American Family, and is once again bringing that Christmas magic to the Savannah Cabaret stage!

Filled with live cabaret performances of holiday classics like “Holly Jolly Christmas,” “Let It Snow!,” “White Christmas,” “The Most Wonderful Time of the Year,” and many more, this is sure to be a holiday classic that hopefully won’t get the guy who writes movies like this fired.

There will be four shows – Thursday, December 18 at 7pm; Friday, December 19 at 7pm; Saturday, December 20 at 3pm; and Sunday, December 21 at 3pm. WHO KILLED SANTA CLAUS?
