Performances take place Dec. 13 @ 2 pm, and @ 7 pm, at Suffolk University’s Modern Theatre, 525 Washington Street in downtown Boston. Tickets are $20 and available at frontporcharts.org. “Holiday Feast” runs approximately 90 minutes with no intermission.

Holiday Feast director Pascale Florestal says “I love that we can pay tribute to holiday episodes from the TV shows that shaped us, made us laugh, and brought us together.
