Without realizing Jack Frost was the cause in Rudolph's fall, somone took matters in their own hands. It has become a RED CHRISTMAS....
Whodunit ? Was it a disgruntled elf? Or a promiscuous raindeer? Maybe it was the Jolly old fat man himself? See if you can figure it out before the North Pole Yeti Police do!
Come dressed in your best Christas tree attire, ugly christmas sweaters, or festive holiday gear. There will be a costume contest.

Millie Monka and the Salmon Canary
January 10th - 18th, 2024
PLOT SUMMARY:
The salmon cannery has been in the Monka family for five generations, long before even Gramma Monka was around. Unbeknownst to the Monka family, there are treasures even greater than savory salmon. Though, the overly-friendly factory worker and part-time evil villain Artie Fischel dives in classic dastardly style. Our secret scoundrel has blocked the salmon from entering the river, attempting to drive the Monkas out of business so he can take over the deed and get his hands on the precious hidden metals.
Will hero Fisher Cutbait be able to save Millie from the conveyor belt? Will Gramma’s heart hold up to tell the tale? Find out in this timeless melodrama featuring fishy characters and far-fetched comedy, sure to provide plenty of laughs that are anything but canned.
