A Nice Family Christmas Sunday, December 15, 2019, 2:00 p.m. Bell Tower Theater 2728 Asbury Road, Dubuque, IA

It’s Christmas Eve, and a young newspaper reporter on the brink of being fired has been assigned a last-chance story about a typical family Christmas - his family’s Christmas. He goes home to his recently widowed mother, his crazy uncle, his eccentric grandmother, and his battling siblings and their neurotic spouses, who provide no shortage of material. When they learn that he’s writing an article with some very personal family information, the fruitcake hits the fan. Your Connections Club price is just $17 for main-floor seating.
