People of Color Christmas: The White Elephant in the Room
by Color Arc Productions
Dec. 16 - Dec. 20, 2015
Wednesday-Sunday
PEOPLE OF COLOR CHRISTMAS: The White Elephant in the Room is a new original, comedic, contemporary Austin Holiday play loosely based on the true-life stories of this quirky and loveable group of diverse friends. Our cast of Latino, Black, and Asian-American actors explore issues of family, love, and relationships in ways we hope audiences will find fun, hilarious, and engaging. Sprinkled throughout the show will be original hip-hop songs, pop a cappella tunes, and tacky Christmas outfits. This holiday season, come discover the heartfelt stories these friends reveal and the outrageous white elephant re-gifts they steal when PEOPLE OF COLOR CHRISTMAS makes its world debut this December 16-20, 2015 at Ground Floor Theatre located at 979 Springdale Rd, Austin, TX 78702 (at the corner of Springdale and Airport Blvd).
