Abrons Art Center will welcome Christmas With the Crawfords this December. The production, which will star Joey Arias as Joan Crawford and Project Runway's Chris March as her daughter Christina, will run from December 10-27.

Christmas With the Crawfords is based on the actual Christmas Eve live radio broadcast of the Crawford family from their Brentwood mansion in the late 1940s. This parody of Hollywood's "Golden Age" is filled with appearances of film favorites such as Judy Garland, Carmen Miranda, Gloria Swanson, and the Andrews Sisters.

Casting will include Connie Champagne as Judy Garland, Sherry Vine (Keith Levy) as Hedda Hopper and Baby Jane Hudson, and Flotilla DeBarge as Hattie McDaniel. Vodka Stinger, Jason B. Schmidt, Brett-Marco Glauser, and Garrit Guadan will complete the cast.

Christmas With the Crawfords debuted in San Francisco in 1992.
