Book & Lyrics by Phil Olson Music by Paul Olson Musical Comedy 3m, 2f Interior A hilarious spoof of Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol.” It’s the smash hit sequel to the award-winning musical, Don't Hug Me. It's Christmas Eve in Bunyan Bay, Minnesota and cantankerous bar owner Gunner Johnson gets in an argument with his wife, Clara, tells her he’s skipping Christmas, he storms out of the bar, goes snowmobiling across the lake, falls through the ice and goes into a coma. He comes back in his dream where he's visited by folk legend, Sven Yorgensen, who plays the ghost of Christmas past, present, and future. Sven takes Gunner (Scrooge) on a journey similar to that in Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol only very different. Will Gunner come out of his coma and find redemption with Clara at The Bunyan? Find out. Featuring 17 original songs, including, “The Christmas Cheese Polka,” “The Wheel is Turnin’ but the Hamster is Dead,” “Gunner Fell Into an Ice Hole,” “It’s Christmas Time so Please Give Me Some,” “The Bunyan Beguine,” “I Love You More Than Football,” “What Would Barbra Streisand Do?” and “I'd Rather be Naughty.” Only 5 characters, a simple set, and it doesn’t require a band, A Don’t Hug Me Christmas Carol is very inexpensive to produce.
