"Sugar Plum Gary," Emmett Montgomery, Annex Theatre, Capitol Hill

A gentle-hearted “Santanist,” Sugar Plum Gary is a bushy-bearded man in jolly footie pajamas who has been haunted by the Holiday Spirit ever since he experienced the real Santa, an ancient and sinister creature more Lovecraft than Dickens. Asking simply, “Does anyone have a question about Christmas?,” Gary unfolds an evening of hilarious and twisted holiday glee that begins on the fateful night when Santa visited the Rankin Bass Home for Unfortunate Children, leaving Gary as the only survivor.

Join Seattle stand-up comedian, storyteller, and gentle weirdo Emmett Montgomery for a delightful and sometimes terrifying adventure that’s always a different show every night.
