the Twin Cities theater scene is looking so festive this holiday season! Interesting to see such a variety of productions - from classic musicals like "White Christmas" and "A Christmas Carol" to more modern hits like "Jesus Christ Superstar". And for those who love comedy, "Dinner for One" sounds hilarious 
. The Jungle Theater bringing it back is genius!
. Have they done their research on how many people actually watch these shows? And what's with the lack of transparency about the production costs? Are we just expected to shell out big bucks for these 'classics' without any context?
. I mean, isn't that, like, a super sensitive topic for some people? Shouldn't there be more... nuance in its presentation? Can anyone point me to some credible sources about this production that go into the context behind it?
️. I mean, who doesn't love a good ol' fashioned White Christmas? And for the kids (and kids at heart), how can you resist the Grinch's antics? 
. Can't wait to see what all the theaters have in store for us this season! 
I'm so down for some holiday cheer at the theater! 
But can we talk about how many shows are happening? It's like they're trying to cram all the feels into one month 
. Anyways, "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" is on my list ASAP - that little grump just needs a hug 
. And omg, "Jesus Christ Superstar" is giving me LIFE! 
But what's up with all these classic rock shows? 
Don't get me wrong, I love Andrew Lloyd Webber, but it feels like every other theater company is doing him
