Lord of Mixrule Theatre Company "Basically, forced Christmas Charity. We’ve taken this ancient Christmas practice and devised a new kind of play. Raucous Christmas absurdity, for the betterment of the community. Instead of paying for a ticket, the audience donates money toward homeless resources during the play to change the way the actors perform their scenes."
