Move over Britney Spears! The Madonna -- as in the Virgin Mary (or Lady MaMa, in some circles) -- announces her first U.S. holiday tour in over 2000 years. Kicking off in New York City on December 6th at The Laurie Beechman Theater, MADONNA’S CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION tour will be performed in 6 cities stretching from Maine to California.

Over 2000 years ago in the little hillside town of Bethlehem a miraculous birth occurred. You might think you know the real story, but you don’t. Jesus' mother sets the record straight with MADONNA’S CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION, a musical retelling of the birth and life of the young Jesus Christ. This inspiring holiday show features original music, plus so-wrong-it’s-right parodies of holiday favorites and Top 40 hits by the likes of The Black Eyed Peas, Beyonce, Lady GaGa, Katy Perry, Rihanna and the more-famous Madonna.

MADONNA’S CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION is conceived and delivered by drag writer/performer Mimi Imfurst and composer/lyricist/arranger Mike Pettry (winner of the 2007 Jonathan Larson and Fredrick Loewe Awards). It features costumes by Norrell Gardner (Project Runway, Gossip Girl), puppets by Mark Salinas and props by Jeb Knight. The show is the 4th annual installment of Mimi Imfurst’s Virgin Mary series, which offers insight into the psyche of the teen mother and the choices Mary had to make as a 13 year-old bride.  It has been hailed by the Catholic Advocacy Coalition as "worse than the sin of abortion" and “despicable, blasphemous and abominable trash" by DailyCatholic.org (who never saw the show).
