The Humbug Hustle: A Holiday Phantom-ime – Sat. Dec 28th – Sun. Jan 5th
The Humbug Hustle is a hilarious, heartwarming, and delightfully irreverent twist on the classic Dickens tale. In this high-energy musical comedy, greedy heiress TT and her extravagant mother, Mrs. Cratchit will stop at nothing to hold onto Scrooge’s vast fortune—think sleepy-time tea and some delightfully fake spooky scares! But when a trio of underdog factory workers (with a knack for dance-offs and musical numbers) uncovers their devious plot, the stage is set for an unforgettable showdown.
Packed with toe-tapping tunes, ghostly gags, and festive magic, Humbug Hustle offers a wild, feel-good ride where generosity battles greed, snow monsters lurk in the shadows, and laughter rings louder than sleigh bells. It’s a journey that proves the best gifts come from the most unexpected places.
