Laugh through the holidays with the irreverent
comedy A Christmas Twist

18 characters to life in A Christmas Twist, an irreverent mash-up of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol and Oliver Twist at Burien Actors Theatre.
The show runs from Nov. 27 through Dec. 20, and includes incidental music played live plus free on-site parking and specialty drinks themed to the show. Don’t miss the opening night party!
“A CHRISTMAS TWIST”
A Christmas Twist tosses Dickens’ A Christmas Carol and Oliver Twist into a high-spirited blender with plenty of pop culture and an absurd cast of characters that includes Little Orphan Annie. The result is a humorous parody of Christmas stories about the poor versus the rich that spreads the spirit of the season. Written by Doug Armstrong, Keith Cooper & Maureen Morley of the Illegitimate Players, A Christmas Twist combines the energy and spontaneous humor of improv with clever satire, bringing to mind a Mel Brooks creation.
The show is suitable for all ages.
