Santa Claus vs. the Martians
“It’s sillier than a series of boxes inside boxes where the smallest one is filled with outer-space killer-clowns.”
— TheatreJones.com
Santa Claus kidnapped by Martians! Will the children on Earth have no toys on Christmas Day? This kitschy, tongue-in-cheek comedy is based on the cult-classic, B-movie Santa Claus Conquers the Martians.
A West Coast and JT Premiere! Recommended for ages 8 and older.
