’TIS THE SEASON: HOMETOWN HOLIDAYS, TRADITIONS OF SACRAMENTO & NORTHERN CALIFORNIA

Nov. 23–Dec. 22, 2025 If the title ’Tis the Season  sounds a tad too traditional for your taste, maybe do a double take, because B Street Theatre’s executive artistic director Lyndsay Burch lovingly dubs this series, now in its third incarnation, “a holiday Saturday Night Live  for all ages.” This annual comedy show—which features about a dozen vignettes and a different theme each year—combines wit with enough warmth to enlarge the heart of any Grinch. And with its new hyperlocal theme, the 2025 production will highlight many of our region’s beloved winter traditions, from pilgrimages to Apple Hill, to seeing the Christmas lights in the Fab 40s, to weekend snow trips to the Sierras. For those home for the holidays, this show promises to tickle the nostalgia bone of any child—or inner child—of Sacramento. bstreettheatre.org
