Synopsis: The holiday show at Mud Creek Theater promises to be a comedic treat this year. In-Laws, Outlaws, and Other People (That Should Be Shot) is a play written by Steve Franco in 2013. It’s the story of the Douglas family as they prepare for their annual Christmas Eve dinner. During this time, Tony – high strung and irritable - and his dim-witted side kick Vinny rob a liquor store and need a hideout. It’s a Christmas comedy that is funny while touching. It celebrates the spirit of Christmas.
