Christmas Bingo: It’s a Ho-Ho-Holy Night  
The Hit Comedy 
Comes to the Irish American Heritage Center,
One Night Only,
Thursday, December 18, 2025


Did Santa babysit the baby Jesus? Why were the Three Wise Men so lost? What are some of your favorite holiday movies? The answers to these and other humorous questions are answered in the hit holiday comedy CHRISTMAS BINGO: IT’S A HO-HO-HOLY NIGHT.

CHRISTMAS BINGO will run one performance, on December 18, 2025, in the upstairs Erin Room, at the Irish American Heritage Center, 
4626 N Knox Ave., Chicago. 

Written by Vicki Quade, one of the creators of the hit comedy Late Nite Catechism, CHRISTMAS BINGO brings together two of the best things about being Catholic: Christmas and Bingo. The show features the character of Mrs. Mary Margaret O’Brien, a former nun and current bingo caller.

The show was selected as one of 10 holiday shows highlighted by Chris Jones, the Chicago Tribune’s theater critic.
 
In this interactive comedy, audience members play bingo while also answering questions about Christmas traditions, the origin of St. Nick, where do candy canes come from, miracles in the Bible, and a clever re-creation of the Annunciation, complete with audience members in angel wings and halos. 
 
Today’s Fan, an online review site, calls Christmas Bingo, “delightful.” “You will be engaged by the show’s uniquely interactive approach that involves a bingo game with real prizes. Its entertaining aspect comes from the hilarity that ensues as Quade tackles off-beat myths and outrageous facts about Christmas.”
 

Tickets are $40, with no additional fees. Tickets Here!
Doors open at 7 p.m., with the performance at 8 p.m. Specialty holiday cocktails and other drinks will be available at the Erin Room bar.
