You Can't Get a Decent Margarita at the North Pole

Fort Fringe
607 New York Avenue, NW Washington

Making his list, checking it twice, then flying all over the world in a single night -- the holidays are a hectic time for poor ol' St. Nick. Presented by the Grain of Sand Theatre Company, You Can't Get a Decent Margarita at the North Pole features an overworked, highly stressed Santa who's dreaming of enjoying a nice, relaxing tropical drink by the ocean. Juggling an uncooperative, alcoholic Rudolph, a wife who wants him to stop working so hard, and seduction attempts from a randy elf, the man in the red suit isn't feeling his jolly old self. Will Christmas survive this hectic holiday season? And will Santa ever get his margarita on the beach?

"... Around this time of the year, it’s quite possible to experience what I like to call ‘Christmas-themed theatre overload.’ After all there’s a plethora of productions of A Christmas Carol to choose from in our area, plenty of holiday concerts, and Nutcracker productions galore. For something slightly different, and definitely a bit off-kilter, one might consider viewing Grain of Sand Theatre’s production of You Can’t Get a Decent Margarita at the North Pole now playing at The Shop at Fort Fringe. While the acerbic play, written by Matt Hanf, is far from perfect, this production is definitely deserving of an audience thanks to some fine direction by Sara Bickler, and quite solid performances from the five-member cast backed by minimal, but professional production values."
