The Holiday Channel Christmas Movie Wonderthon
by Don Zolidis
​
Directed by Darren Kilbury
In "The Holiday Channel Christmas Movie Wonderthon," Don Zolidis masterfully lampoons the saccharine sweetness of holiday TV movies with a fast-paced, rollicking adventure through the snow-covered, tinsel-strewn world of seasonal cinema. As viewers channel surf through a marathon of holiday cheer, they encounter a delightful mishmash of all the quintessential elements: big city professionals rediscovering the magic of Christmas in quaint towns, unexpected romances sparked by mistletoe mishaps, and families reconciling just in time for the festive season - all served with a generous side of witty banter and tongue-in-cheek satire. The play joyfully skewers the predictable plots and characters that populate these movies, from the workaholic too busy for holiday spirit to the small-town hero with a heart of gold, all while celebrating the comforting predictability and warmth that make Christmas movies a staple of holiday entertainment. Zolidis's creation is a clever, comedic ode to the genre that manages to both roast and toast the enduring appeal of finding love, joy, and the true meaning of Christmas in the most expected places.
