Terrific tunes, silly stories, goofy gifts, audience antics: it’s all in this brand-new musical party that sleighs!

A Very Special Special

Saturday, December 12, 2026 @ 8:00pm
Oakes Center Summit, NJ

Holiday Variety Show - The least serious - but most special - way to celebrate the holidays is back, and better than ever!

The Vivid Company and their friends will entertain with holiday songs, comic sketches and improv, and lots of good old-fashioned fun.

Each year’s show is original; past years’ performances included an ode to binge shopping, a spoof of Hallmark Channel movies and a holiday cooking show gone bad.

This year’s show promises a unique kind of silliness that's the perfect complement to your traditional holiday viewing!
