Seattle sketch mavens Lisa Koch and Peggy Platt (Dos Fallopia) ring in the holidays with the 11th edition of their cult holiday show, chock full of maladjusted characters, tacky costumes, and more wigs than Lady GaGa. A Lard Day’s Night features a plethora of questionable taste:

• Country duo The Spudds give film noir a makeover with “Double-Wide Indemnity.”

• Game show “Who’s Your Deity?” spanks dogma with panelists Harvey Fierstein, Kirstie Alley, and Professor Dumbledore--hosted by Sister Mary Agnes.

• Get to know Michele and Marcus Bachmann up close in “Bachmann Xmas Overdrive.”

• Ballard stalwarts The Polka Dots mangle popular songs and the English language, polka style.

• The tiny Sequim Gay Men's Chorus add two new lesbian members and a name change (S.Q.U.E.E.L.)

Koch and Platt have collaborated as Dos Fallopia for more than 20 years, and have penned shows like Deja Poo, Pretty Girls, Not Too Bright, Twin Sisters of Different Cul-de-sacs, The Holiday Survival Game Show, and Glazing Saddles. A London Connection review declared, “Could they be the long lost love of Doris Day and Divine? Big, brash, and completely mad...,” and a San Francisco Bay Times reviewer proclaimed, “...two of the funniest, most irreverent comedians I've seen in years.”

Koch has recorded 4 solo CD's, is an alumnus of Venus Envy ("I'll Be a Homo for Xmas"), has composed an Off-Broadway musical ("27 Rue de Fleurus"), had one of her songs sampled in a Jay-Z tune, and has been seen on LOGO and Olivia cruises. Platt was voted Seattle's best comic 9 times, is a respected Seattle actor, voice-over and radio personality (Fat Girl Follies, Rocky Horror Show, Holiday Survival Game Show), and has opened for Jay Leno and Cindy Lauper.
