THE STORY: In this outrageously funny comedy, it\u2019s Christmas-time in the newest\u2014and tiniest\u2014town in Texas. And it\u2019s beginning to look a lot like trouble in Doublewide. Not only are the trailer park residents dealing with the stress of the holiday season, but they\u2019ve just discovered that Doublewide is being doubled-crossed by the County. With their official incorporation papers in jeopardy, this band of eccentric Texans throw themselves into taking on the \u201cBig Guys.\u201d Determined to bolster their legitimacy, they first set their sights on the County-wide \u201cBattle of The Mangers\u201d competition. They conspire to win this smackdown with their \u201cNativity at the Alamo\u201d entry\u2026by any means possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to that shaky undertaking and trying almost single-handedly to keep the new town afloat, Mayor Joveeta Crumpler has to wrangle her celebrity-obsessed mother, her beleaguered brother who\u2019s being bullied by a pack of vengeful raccoons, and her demoralized best friend who\u2019s at the end of her rope from dating every loser this side of the Rio Grande. To make matters worse, Joveeta finds herself increasingly wary of the newest resident, Patsy Price. Patsy, fresh out of the local mental institution, clearly has her own devious agenda and the County competition over in Fayro is just the place for her to settle an old score. By the time this full-tilt rocket ride of lunacy climaxes in a what-else-can-go-wrong live television presentation, you\u2019ll have doubled your Christmas spirit. So spend the Yuletide in Doublewide and let this hilarious Jones Hope Wooten Comedy make your Christmas merry and bright\u2026because there\u2019s no place like a good ol\u2019 Texas-sized mobile home for the holidays!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
