HOLIDAY! AN IMPROVISED MUSICAL

HOLIDAY! AN IMPROVISED MUSICAL

December 10–20 2026

Created and Directed by Jan Caruana
Composed (on the spot) by Scott Christian

A Bad Dog Theatre production in association with Factory Theatre

2024 Dora Award Nominee for Outstanding Production, Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble and Outstanding Creative Direction. 
 
Holiday! An Improvised Musical takes its inspiration from Stephen Sondheim’s “Company” to bring you the only party you’ll need. Based on suggestions from the audience, the cast weaves together a series of improvised vignettes and songs exploring love, relationships, work and the true meaning of the season. You’ll leave with a smile on your face and a song in your heart (though you may not remember the words because that song didn’t exist an hour before the show).
