Annual Christmas Extravaganza sleighs<\/a>]<\/ins><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t“The vision I have in my head is a kind of clown car situation where dancing girls come pouring out of it and elves set the stage. The theme this year is that I’m a talk show host,” Costs said. “Instead of suffering through the two-hour show at the theater, you’re just getting the highlights.”<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t
The tickets were purchased in large by long-time supporters of the Christmas show, Costa said. The show is appropriate for all ages, Costa said, though performers would likely tailor their performance toward those present.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t
“There’s only eight tickets sold. That’s five hours of work. They’re kind of hardcores that have been coming over the years,” Costa said. “Generally speaking, it’s a family friendly show, though if there aren’t any kids around, it has much greater potential for going off the rails.”<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t
Costa said they hope to be back indoors by next year, but there’s no reason the concept couldn’t be employed elsewhere if it proves successful here.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t
“We’ll definitely be doing it next year. God willing, we’ll be back inside,” Costa said. “I’m very curious to see how the concept rolls out. If it’s something that everyone enjoys, there’s no reason we couldn’t do something like this as a summer show.”<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t
The Gold Town’s drive-in theater will be taking some time off for about a month, Costa said, but the indoor theater, which has been getting some renovations, is pencilled it for a soft reopening in January, Costa said.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t
