The Eight: Reindeer Monologues is a thought-provoking and thoroughly engaging look at child molestation, rape, and family dysfunction told exclusively from the perspective of Santa Claus' reindeer.
Yes, it sounds terrible - grownups in antlers making jokes about Claymation holiday specials, Kris Kringle's fetish for having kids on his lap, and Mrs. Claus' drinking problem. But while there is plenty of Christmas-fueled humor, the heart of this play is universal - eight very different characters dealing with the secrets, loyalties, and lies of a particularly strange family.
