THE STORY
On the eve of Carrol Kilroy’s hysterectomy, white trash mayhem occurs. Can Carrol make it through dinner with a drugged up breast-feeding trophy wife, an incontinent mother-in-law and a birth-control obsessed daughter in love with her gay uncle, without divorcing not only her drunk husband but the whole family? Will she be able to keep her secret, keep peace in the family, and still perform her Christmas song—a Kilroy family tradition? Stay tuned to find out the fate of Christmas Carrol’s sheet-music.
In the Company of Killjoys is a physical comedy in two-acts similar in style to the TV show, Married with Children. The Kilroy’s save their best dysfunction for Christmas-time.
