Banana Bag & Bodice’s 10th Anniversary Special – A Very SANDWICH Christmas
December 3 –19, 2009

In a celebration of 10 years of successful theatre-making, Banana Bag & Bodice re-imagines their classic surreal musical cabaret with new holiday charm. A Very SANDWICH Christmas is a meaty treat that leaks blood and uses bread to soak it up. Brought to you by the creators of the acclaimed Beowulf – A Thousand Years of Baggage, this show will make you laugh while forcing you to smell the burning flesh surrounding your merry little soul.

Featuring a four-piece orchestra with original score, Sandwich is a playful, provocative & horrific musical that examines the art of eating and the blind act of consumption during the festive holiday season. Like a disastrous anime cartoon with rambunctious rhythm, it features overstuffed animals offering their moral misgivings to the exaggeratedly grotesque humans that feed them. Full of sing-a-long fun, Sandwich is a compendium of oddities to stuff in your stocking. Performances begin December 3 and run through December 19: Wednesday-Friday @ 8pm, Saturdays @ 7pm and 9pm, Special Show on Monday, December 14 @ 8pm.

A Very SANDWICH Christmas cast: Peter Blomquist, Rick Burkhardt, Jason Craig, Sarah Engelke, Ezra Gale, Rod Hipskind, Jessica Jelliffe, Dave Malloy, John Murchison, Heather Peroni.
Directed by Mallory Catlett, Original Text and Music by Banana Bag & Bodice.
