Flanagan is dead, but don’t be sad because remembering his life is all about laughs! Back by popular demand, it’s Flanagan’s Wake, the hilarious, interactive Irish funeral. Come celebrate the life of our dear friend, Flanagan, by hoisting a pint and joining in on the tales that unfold.
Join the villagers of the beautiful Grapplin, County Sligo, Ireland, as they tell tales, sing songs and toast the memory of one of their own. Pay your respects to glowering Mother Flanagan and to the poor grieving fiancée, Fiona Finn. Listen to a eulogy written by County Sligo’s best-known writer, Mickey Finn, and tip a pint with Brian Ballybunion, himself a weaver of tales. Share memories of your own experiences and misadventures with dear, old Flanagan, or simply enjoy the stories and songs of the locals as they recall Flan’s life. Cross yourself with the blessings from St. Gregory’s parish priest, Father Damon Fitzgerald, or cross your fingers that local pagan Kathleen Mooney doesn’t cast a spell on you. Mayor Martin O’Doul will preside over the proceedings with an iron hand (and a parched throat) as he leads in grieving as only the Irish can.
Starring Tim Dybevik, Adam Fielitz, Madde Gibba, Brian Kelly, Heather Meyer, Ryan Nelson, and Stephen Pearce.

The Comedy Roast of Mr. Scrooge combines the oldest traditions from comedy—savagely mocking someone—and the holidays—imbibing in one too many ‘nogs and telling everyone what you really think. All the classic, beloved characters from A Christmas Carol finally get their chance to give Scrooge what’s coming to him in words that Charles Dickens never even knew.
Starring some of the Twin Cities’ funniest, Justine Carroll, Zach Coulter, Tim Dybevik, Adam Fielitz, John Haynes, Chris Knutson, JoNaie Villeneuve, Bill Young, and Rick Logan as Scrooge, this irreverent and raucous show is the perfect anecdote for those who prefer a little more spice and a little less nice to their holidays. This ain’t your average Christmas Carol!

It’s 24 hours before Christmas and all comic hell is about to break loose in the town of Tuna, the “third-smallest” town in Texas where the Lion’s Club is too liberal and Patsy Cline never dies. In addition to the usual seasonal traumas that the holidays bring, a mysterious “Christmas Phantom” has been vandalizing the yard displays in the town’s annual Christmas Yard Display Contest, threatening to throw the contest into turmoil. And if that wasn’t trouble enough, the disaster-prone production of A Christmas Carol is falling apart!
Under the direction of Zach Curtis, Scott Jorgenson and Peter Simmons portray all 24 of the delightfully eccentric denizens of Tuna, Texas, in this irreverent, holiday follow-up to Jaston Williams, Joe Sears, and Ed Howard’s Greater Tuna.
