pop the holidays: music with ‘shells hoffman

Created by Nick Chase & Roslyn Hart
Performed by Roslyn Hart
Written & Directed by Nick Chase
Music Director & Accompanist: Alec Steinhorn

Crash into the holidays at this True West Award-winning show in which souls are bared, shots are downed, and sh*t gets real. Hosted by “hysterically funny and wildly inappropriate” (Time Out NY) downtown NYC sensation ‘Shells Hoffman, this 85-minute ride includes inspired interpretations of holidays classics and pop music, party games, and some jaw-dropping revelations. One thing is for certain: “the more she drinks, the more she’ll spill” -NY Times
