CHRISTMAS ON THE ROCKS

Fresh, funny and smart – it’s back. Conceived and directed by Producing Artistic Director Rob Ruggiero, Connecticut's favorite holiday tradition returns to TheaterWorks Hartford. CHRISTMAS ON THE ROCKS features seven playwrights each adding their own spin to the canon of holiday traditions past. Rob said "This is Rocks as you know it – LIVE ON STAGE!. Ted and Randy are back and this year I'm super excited to introduce our audiences to an amazing stage talent, Broadway's Jen Cody. Jen and I have worked together in the past – audiences are going to fall in love all over again." This is the 9th year TWH has staged the production to an ever-growing audience.

Rob added “This year we again hold onto joy, hope and traditions past. Christmas on the Rocks is the perfect tradition to share with family and friends.”

CHRISTMAS ON THE ROCKS is an offbeat collection of twisted holiday tales by John Cariani, Jeffrey Hatcher, Jenn Harris & Matthew Wilkas, Jacques Lamarre, Theresa Rebeck and Edwin Sanchez.

It's Christmas Eve in a rundown local bar. Expecting a silent night, the bartender finds himself mixing drinks for a parade of surprising guests - children from your favorite Christmas specials and movies - now all grown up. Join them as they pour out their Christmas woes in this delightful parody.

CHRISTMAS ON THE ROCKS streams December 2 through December 23, 2021.
