Christmas is a time for joy and happiness, but there's a sinister secret wrapped in the stories we tell. Douglas Walker unravels a shocking true story with his ingenious new comic play. An absurd and incredible one-man epic, encompassing a dizzying cast of characters spanning 100 years of history. The only thing more devastating than finding out that Santa doesn't exist is finding out that he does. 'Exceptional... characters as self-assured as they are eloquent' **** (Skinny). 'A truly fascinating hour of comedy' **** (List). 'A comedy adventure of discovery' **** (FringeGuru.com).
