Holiday chaos, unexpected friendship, and the joy of saying “yes” take center stage in this hilarious new comedy created especially for Lyric Arts. When ordinary Anoka resident Wade Bauer is unexpectedly swept into a bizarre North Pole celebration complete with singing elves, a giant raffle wheel, questionable holiday magic, and plenty of meat, he quickly discovers that there may be more to the evening than anyone is letting on.
Packed with outrageous Minnesota humor, music, audience participation, and a surprising amount of heart, SANTA’S MAGIC MEAT RAFFLE is a wildly original holiday comedy about rediscovering joy, finding the courage to take a chance, and reconnecting with the part of ourselves that isn’t afraid to say “yes.” Festive, funny, and delightfully unpredictable, it’s a one-of-a-kind celebration of friendship, belonging, and the magic that can happen when we stop playing it safe.
