There's something perverted about a Christmas tree. I think they're weird. They've got an aura, like a malicious kind of an aura. It looks perverted, and it gives me the creeps.

In an abandoned building somewhere above the Northern Line, with foxes prowling the deserted streets outside, a Jewish family gathers on Christmas Day.

Sam Grabiner's viciously funny play about family, belonging, and the rituals we perform with the people we love opened at the Almeida Theatre, London, in December 2025.
