Truth: the holidays are over and you're bummin' a bit. It's time to get on the straight and narrow diet-wise, you don't have a party in the near future, and you're actually going to miss the sound of good ol' Bing Crosby crooning "White Christmas" at Starbucks. We don't know about you, but we think the best remedy to cure the blues is laughter, so we suggest you snap up a ticket for The Second City's Holidays in the Heights.
Sure, the silly season may be over, but this hysterical sketch is bound to boost your spirits again with its twisted take on traditions such as family gatherings (we all can relate!), gift-giving, and the tortures of seasonal traveling. It's just the thing you need to warm up during this cold, crazy season. Holidays in the Heights runs through January 4 and tickets cost between $29.50 and $34.50.
