The Eight: Reindeer Monologues

Daisy's Madhouse The folks who brought you Evil Dead: The Musical, presents Jeff Goode's irreverent holiday alternative, The Eight: Reindeer monologues!

Sex...Lies...Santa...? Disenchanted with the usual sugar-coated holiday entertainment? Tired of the same old, traditional shows that push enough good cheer and uplifting, seasonal sweetness to send most of the Treasure Valley to the hospital in a diabetic seizure? This December, Daisy's Madhouse offers audiences a hysterical alternative with Jeff Goode's acerbic play, The Eight: Reindeer Monologues.

This dark Christmas comedy sheds new light on Santa and his eight reindeer. Scandal erupts at the North Pole when one of Santa's eight tiny reindeer accuses him of sexual harassment. As mass media descends upon the event, the other members of the sleigh team demand to share their perspectives, and a horrific tale of corruption and perversion emerges, which seems to implicate everyone from the littlest elf to the tainted Saint himself.

With each deer's confession, the truth behind the shocking allegations becomes clearer and clearer...and murkier and murkier. Santa is NO saint! He is an exploitative micro-manager, an abusive husband and a sexual deviant with a penchant for young venison. And forget happy elves and cute smiling reindeer; think instead of Rudolph in a padded stall; Cupid as a gay toy boy and Vixen as a doe with a tale to tell. The Eight: Reindeer Monologues is coarse, witty, vulgar and crude Christmas indulgence! You'll never look at Santa the same way again!
