The Güt Life! - Christmas With the Yoders and Nick.
An unexpected knock. An unplanned guest. One unforgettable night.

Simon and Eliza Yoder never expected the special guest that showed up at their front door on Christmas Eve. They didn't even know the man in the red suit knew where they lived. And, trust us, the man was just as surprised as they were!

A collision of traditions, a clash of cultures, and a stranger in search of far more than just an address, this new Yuletide Musical will both entertain and inspire you.

"The Güt Life! Christmas with the Yoders and Nick" is ninety minutes of ha, ha, ha, and ho, ho, ho, stories, songs, and everything in between!

Martha Bolton

Martha Bolton was the genius behind the two previous adaptations for the Blue Gate Stage The Confession and Half-Stitched and has written comedy for such performers as Bob Hope, Phyllis Diller, Ann Jillian, Jeff Allen, Mark Lowry, Fritz Coleman, and more. A speaker and author of over 50 books, Martha is also the Cafeteria Lady for Brio magazine. (If you're looking for The Cafeteria Lady's newest recipe book, you'll find it listed under Notable Toxic Waste Dumps of the South.) Martha has also written for both Bob Hope's and Wayne Newton's USO shows. Martha began her comedy writing career as a church secretary. "I saw a lot of comedy in the church," Martha says with a laugh. "I used to perform a Friar's Club-type roast on the pastor, deacon, or any other church staff member who was celebrating a special occasion. I had to change churches a lot." And thus began Martha's writing career. She's been going strong ever since. For more information, visit www.marthabolton.com/.
