Ugly Sweater Spectacular

Welcome to the Ugly Sweater Spectacular, where your favorite Christmas memories get stuffed into a stocking, spiked with something strong, and shaken until the sequins fall off.

For one unholy night, burlesque, drag, circus, and variety collide with Christmas nostalgia, festive characters, holiday movies, and all the wonderfully tacky traditions we love to hate. Expect naughty elves, glamorous grinches, questionable Santas, and enough tinsel to become a genuine fire hazard.

It’s festive. It’s filthy. It’s the holiday show your grandmother warned you about.

Come celebrate the most wonderfully inappropriate time of the year.

🔥 After the Show

Stick around after the final bow. The party is just getting lit. We’ll have dancing, interactive games, and prizes. The music stays loud, the food and drinks keep flowing, and nobody has to go home to argue with their relatives just yet.

🎭 Why We Dress Up

All Plot Twist shows are interactive. Think of yourself as an extra in a movie. You wouldn’t show up to the North Pole dressed for a day at the beach, right? Unless you’re playing Santa on vacation, in which case, carry on.

When we all blend into the theme, the story comes alive. When you dress up, you’re not just attending the show. YOU ARE PART OF IT!

Coming straight from work? Wear your ugly sweater all day. Call it festive team building. If your boss complains, invite them to the show.

🎯 Dress Up Ideas

Dig out the ugliest sweater you own, or create a festive monstrosity worthy of its own Christmas special.

Think blinking lights, pom poms, tinsel, bells, bows, ornaments, stuffed animals, matching holiday pajamas, vintage Christmas glam, naughty elves, reindeer, snowpeople, nutcrackers, gingerbread people, angels, grinches, Krampus, Christmas movie characters, mall Santas, leg lamps, or anything aggressively red, green, sparkly, and overdecorated.

The louder, tackier, and more unholy, the better.

Intoxication Policy
Drink responsibly. Enjoy yourself, but know your limits. If you become disruptive, unsafe, or disrespectful, staff will cut off service or ask you to leave. Alcohol is never an excuse for ignoring boundaries or consent. Touching the performers is grounds for removal. NO EXCEPTIONS!!

Can I bring Food and Drinks?
No outside food and drinks allowed. The Boardwalk has a full restaurant menu, fully stocked bar including non-alcoholic options and a specially crafted Plot Twist drink menu! Please support the venue with the purchase of eats and drinks.

Where do I park?
The lot on premise is small. Plan to arrive at least 10 minutes early for parking and walking. A vacant lot is located directly across the street at 9401 Greenback Ln please park neatly! If that lot is full you can get in where you fit in at other nearby empty lots and businesses that have closed for the evening. 

Do we have to give tips?
YES please!! It is HIGHLY encouraged and part of the Burlesque culture. Our performers work hard and love when you throw dollars at them. It actually helps them take their clothes off. Rhinestones aren't free homie. Please plan ahead and bring singles, $5's, and if you're really fancy bring the Benjamins.  We typically have 06 to 08 performers if you're the budgeting type. There will also be a QR code in the program which offers tipping via venmo/cashapp.

Can I take photos/videos?
Yes, absolutely! We love seeing your snaps and clips. Be sure to tag @plottwistliveshow and the performer. Please be respectful and avoid taking photos or videos of performers during moments when they're less than bra/panties, or in fully exposed poses (front or back). That's part of the magic you pay to see live! PLEASE TAG: @plottwistlive #plottwistlive

How long is the show?
Each show runs approx 90 minutes with an additional 60 minute interactive dance party.

Is the venue wheelchair accessible? 
It sure is. Be sure to email the producer for additional accommodations plottwistliveshow@gmail.com

Can I bring my kids? 
Fuck yes you can *IF* they're over 21. This is a bar. 21 and up only! 

What time should I arrive?
Doors open at 7pm and the show starts promptly at 8pm. Arrive early for the best views. DON'T BE LATE!!! WE START ON TIME! 

What's the dress code?
At Plot Twist, Live! we're bringing back the good ol' fashion days where people dress up for shows. DRESS in your sunday costume best! Bonus if it's loud, it's proud, it's in theme of the performer you're there to see, if there's glitter, sparkles, and anything over the top think Burning Man but with Rhinestones. The weirder the better. We do not allow guests to expose buttocks, genitals, or nipples. You can definitely dress sexy.

How do I get on stage?
During the show we sometimes spotlight the weird and the fabulously dressed. Dress up and we may show you out! We also play games (not with your head of course) and volunteering will get you that spotlight. Lastly, if you have a talent you'd like to share with the community please email hello@plottwistlive.com for more details.
