Beach Blanket Babylon welcomes this holiday season with special performances featuring a chorus line of tap dancing Christmas trees, special parodies of traditional Christmas carols and a gigantic Yuletide hat.
The two New Year's Eve shows will feature a pastiche of the best and worst of 2011 - Beach Blanket Babylon style. Guests at each show will receive champagne and truffles. The second show - ending at the stroke of midnight - will feature post-show dancing until 1:30 a.m.
