Story Synopsis:
It is 6pm
and the Douglas family is busily preparing to be invaded by
their quirky relatives for their annual Christmas Eve dinner.
After robbing a neighborhood liquor store, high strung and
irritable Tony and his dim-witted side-kick Vinny, find
themselves in need of a place to briefly hide out. Using a
ruse to enter Douglas’ home, they suddenly find themselves in
charge of an ever-growing list of guests that they are forced
to hold hostage. With smart-aleck teenagers, nosy neighbors
and bickering adults the laughs are non-stop. We soon are
wondering who is holding who hostage? A comic treasure that is
sure to leave the audience in stitches all while celebrating
the true meaning of Christmas.
