We sat down with the stars of each of our upcoming Late Night Series holiday productions and asked about their shows and what Christmas means to them.
OOPS! I CHRISTMASSED AGAIN: A Britney Spears Christmas Carol
1. How does it feel to be the star of a holiday production at The ComedySportz Theatre?
OMG, y'all, I am so excited! I love ComedySportz and would always go to ComedySportz Kentwood while I was growin' up, and now, to be a part of such a huge holiday show?! It's like a dream come true! It's better than winnin' a People's Choice.
2. What's your show about?
Okay, so sometimes we all lose the meanin' of Christmas, what with the bustlin' around and the rushin' and the paparazzi, and that happened to me. But luckily, I was visited by three awesome spirits who showed me what Christmas is all about!
3. What's your favorite holiday memory?
OMG, I remember one year when I was really little, my family accidentally left me at the house in Kentwood, Louisiana while they went to Paris! And if that wasn't crazy enough, these two burglars were tryin' to break in and I had to defend my house! And I made friends with the old man that everyone thought was weird because he salted the walks and then I sang O Holy Night and my parents came back and Buzz found out I let his tarantula out. That was my favorite Christmas growing up. But now I have kids of my own, so Christmas is so special.
4. Okay be honest, why should someone come out and see your show?
Okay, y'all, if you are like me, you want to find out what the true meaning of Christmas is. And there is no one better to help you with that than me, Lady Gaga, Madonna, and Justin Bieber. And also, we dance!
5. How will you and your family be celebrating the holidays?
OMG, y'all, we're just like every other family, so we'll be bakin' cookies, and singin carols, and trimmin' the tree and dancin' with boa constrictors. And doin' shows at the ComedySportz Theatre!
OOPS! I CHRISTMASSED AGAIN: A Britney Spears Christmas Carol runs Fridays at Midnight, Nov 19 - Dec 17. Tickets are $10, only $5 to guests of the 10pm ComedySportz show! Groups welcome! CSz Recommendz: 18+
"RICKY RAY" STEVENS of THE STEVENS FAMILY PEANUTS X-MAS SPECIAL
1. How does it feel to be the star of a holiday production at The ComedySportz Theatre?
Pretty good man! We all real excited to put up this show! It's gonna be the best thing anyone's ever seen ever!!
2. What's your show about?
We're taking our favorite Christmas special, "A Charlie Brown Christmas", and doin our thing with it. We used to watch it every year on our Dad's stolen Zenith while we decorated his gun rack.
3. What's your favorite holiday memory?
Me and my brothers used to get up early to try to catch Santa in the act. We'd even set up traps around the fireplace hopin we could keep him. Never caught him cause he's awesome. Like Foghat!
4. Okay be honest, why should someone come out and see your show?
Why wouldn't they? What kind of question is that?! We're The Stevens Family! The best thing to happen to Chicago comedy since Jim Belushi!
5. How will you and your family be celebrating the holidays?
Well, Baller's still servin time so we'll probably try to break him out, steal a car and cause some trouble. Maybe steal a turkey and eat it.
