There’s nothing like a good old-fashioned holiday special, and The Wag’s Christmas Spectacular is just that! Steeped in the traditions of holiday TV shows of the past, The Wag brings back the memories of these specials while putting their own unique stamp on them.
 
Their show has all of the holiday songs that you know and love, plus dance numbers, costume changes, and comedy sketches, along with some fun surprises – including a few original Christmas/Holiday songs! The Wag’s sense of humor and their homemade props and costumes alone are worth the price of admission.
 
The show also features a running theme of “Christmas Around the World”. There will be holiday songs and sketches from Ireland, Germany, Spain, & more! The Wag’s Christmas Spectacular is sure to please the entire family.
