“Christmas In Hell,” the very unconventional holiday musical by Gary Apple, is finishing its premier run in Las Vegas. If you weren’t in Sin City to see it,  take this photo journey into the bowels of Hell to get a glimpse of what you missed.

The seasonal musical comedy 'Christmas In Hell' will be concluding its premier Las Vegas stint on the first of the year. The limited-run show, which bills itself as 'Holiday Fun For The Whole Family... Except The Kids,' ran for six weeks at Notoriety Theater on Fremont Street in downtown Vegas.

The holidays have arrived, with images of decorating a tree, shopping, parties, dinners with family, and all of the joy the season brings. Then there is Bah Humbug, but Christmas in Hell takes it one step further as an irreverent musical comedy performing in the Notoriety Renkus Heinz Theater at Notoriety Las Vegas through Jan. 15, 2023.

Previously featured at sold-out shows at Off-Broadway's York Theatre, 'Christmas in Hell' will debut at Notoriety on November 17, 2022 and continue into the new year with shows until January 15, 2023.

Urban Stages Theater is presenting the premier reading of On The Flip Side, a new jukebox musical by Gary Apple as part of their 'Winter Readings Series.' Jukebox musicals about legendary superstars have packed Broadway houses over recent years, so Apple decided to create one for artists who will never have a jukebox musical of their own -- namely, One-Hit Wonders.

Urban Stages Theater is presenting the first public reading of LEAVE THE CANNOLI, the latest play by Gary Apple as part of their 'New Year, New Plays' series, LEAVE THE CANNOLI is a comedy set in the world of The Godfather and tells the unknown story of how the horse head ends up in the movie producer's bed. Though everyone knows that iconic scene, the film never explains how the horse head actually got there. Playwright Apple, known for his twisted tales, decided to speculate on how it might have happened.

The humorous set-up for the new musical at The York, Christmas in Hell is a bit of an old chestnut, but bookwriter/composer/lyricist Gary Apple makes it sing nicely.
