In a brisk hour-long television Christmas Special format, Enola Gay Tibbets, the mother of the pilot of the infamous bomber who named his plane after her, is trying to clear her name. What better way than a feel-good Christmas show broadcast from the downstairs of her suburban Miami, Florida home. The show features her singing a little, cooking a little, decorating a little and doing a little cocaine. She also has some very special guests – as well as one surprise guest! An Enola Gay Christmas is full of history – both factual and fictional – the basics are fact – and then the fantasy begins. Two actresses play four parts – one actress plays Enola Gay – and the other actress plays Shinto San, Beverlina Sanchez and the surprise guest. An off stage elf provides appropriate and inappropriate theme music.
There is no performance on Thursday, December 25 and there is an added performance on Saturday, December 27 at 5pm.
