Come celebrate the joy of the season with a double dose of holiday nostalgia and plenty of laughter. Get your tickets and join us for a cozy, old-time radio Christmas!
Fibber McGee & Molly: “Fibber Paints a Christmas Tree”
Fibber’s holiday spirit turns into holiday chaos when he decides to paint the Christmas tree himself. Expect mishaps, mischief, and classic Fibber-and-Molly banter as the festive season goes gloriously off the rails.
The Jack Benny Program: “Jack Benny Buys Shoelaces for Don”
A simple shopping trip for a pair of shoelaces becomes a comedy of penny-pinching, misunderstandings, and surprise encounters in true Jack Benny style. Watch holiday generosity (and Jack’s tight wallet) collide for laugh-out-loud results.
