My cousin Nathan casually mentioned that Fullerton's Maverick Theatere was doing a performance of "Santa Claus Conquers the Martians". He thought that was strange. Laura and I looked at each other with jaws dropped. SCCM has been a bit of an obsession with me since college and this little bit of information was almost enough to make me cry. When I first called, they were sold out. I told them about my love for this film and they opened up some seats. Apparently there were quite a few people who expressed their love, because they added another date. our good and beautiful friend Heather Kelly came along. I loved most of the whole production, some of it got a little too slapstick and corny. I thought it might be something that only fans of the movie would like, but Heather said she wants to go again next year. It was quite simply a wonderful experience that most people would shy away from. I highly recommend watching the movie at least once. "S-A-N-T-A C-L-A-U-S, Hooray for Santy Claus!!!"
