You think your winter vacation was a disaster? Playwright Jessica Lind Petersen and director Jason Petersen of Yellow Tree Theatre bring you the gift of perspective this holiday season with a Christmas saga that’s more likely to draw an “awkward” than an “aww” from its audience. With their latest comedy, the husband-wife team responsible for holiday hits Miracle at Christmas Lake and Miracle at Christmas Lake Two delivers another hilarious, original take on the season of hope and joy. Featuring a dose of Minnesota flavor and a generous sprinkling of spice (we don’t mean nutmeg), A Hunting Shack Christmas is sure to keep even the grinchiest among us ha-ha-ha-ing through all the season’s fa-la-la-ing. Ages 13 and up. $18–$27; $3 discounts for students, seniors 60+, and groups of 10 or more. 7:30 p.m. Tuesday– Saturday; 2 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. Yellow Tree Theatre, 320 5th Ave. SE, Osseo; 763.493.8733; yellowtreetheatre.com
