​Pursuing Excellence Onstage and Off

Santa Claus Conquers the Martians, by Rodney Smith

December 9-23, 2022
​Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30pm, Sundays at 2:30pm
Special Christmas Eve Matinee, December 24th, 2:30pm

​This show is not a children's show. It contains explicit language, sexual innuendo and schticky violence. 


Acclaimed local playwright and director Rodney Smith has offered to take the usual holiday fare and turn it on its head by adapting this campy and (unintentionally) funny film from the 1960s for our stage. I'd explain the plot, but there's not much to it outside the title.

Whether you're a fan of the movie or just looking for an alternative to Christmas schmaltz, you're going to laugh and cheer at the bumbling Kinmar, Voldar, Dropo and the sexy Mrs. Candi Clause. And isn't that what the holidays are all about?

We at Attic Salt Theatre Company stand by the principles of and in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement. As an organization, we value the talents and knowledge base of the POC actors, teachers and administrators that we’ve called colleagues and friends over the past two decades. We’re proud the decades of work we’ve done teaching students in communities of color, and the relationships we developed with The Partnership for Inner-City Schools over our many years working in New York City. 
 
As we move forward in our current hometown of Asheville, a city still struggling with it’s racial identity and problems, we will continue to evaluate our programs and practices to ensure we our doing our best to be a thoughtful and equitable member of the Asheville theater community. We will continue to find ways to make the arts accessible to audiences, artists and educators of all colors, classes and gender identities.
