Annual Deer Run Lane Holiday Party:

The targets are obvious, but the laughs are earned in Chemically Imbalanced Theater’s fourth annual, ensemble-created holiday offering. Spiked punch, *Fargo*-worthy accents, sexual sublimation (the lustworthy Brawny paper towel man gets dissected), and a new resident with multiple emotional issues festoon this neighborhood Christmas party from hell. The eight-member ensemble hauls this sleigh full of suburban dysfunction with the vigor of Santa’s reindeer. And for all its crudity, the show reminds us that a longing for community is a seasonal hallmark. Audience members can augment their BYOB potables with Christmas cookies handed out by the cast beforehand. —Kerry Reid

Every December, the residents of Deer Run Lane, a tiny cul de sac in Elk Woods Village, get together for their annual holiday party. The games, refreshments, and carols are all the same but this year the neighborhood party goes awry. This hilarious tale touches that place in all of us that both loves and fears holiday gatherings. Chemically Imbalanced Comedy’s Ensemble brings you an original Holiday Comedy to ease the taste of bad nog and the smell of roasted chestnuts in our 4th annual Seasonal Disorder series “The Annual Deer Run Lane Holiday Party”
