SYAA's Holiday Hoedown

What happens when a group of students cleaning out an old storage barn discovers forgotten Holiday Hoedown memorabilia, accidentally locks themselves inside, and becomes convinced there's a monster lurking outside?

Only the most hilarious Christmas adventure you've ever seen!

Join us for Holiday Hoedown 2026, a laugh-out-loud musical packed with country Christmas favorites, unforgettable characters, mysterious sounds in the night, and one extremely committed cow named Caroline. When an old Holiday Hoedown box is uncovered, memories come flooding back, decorations start appearing, Christmas music mysteriously follows everyone around, and a simple strike after a show turns into an unforgettable holiday celebration.

Along the way you'll meet students determined to solve the mystery, a turkey with perfect timing, a "Christmas hippopotamus" theory that refuses to die, and a band that may or may not actually exist. Expect festive songs, big laughs, heartwarming moments, and enough Christmas spirit to fill an entire barn.

Beneath all the comedy, Holiday Hoedown reminds us what Christmas is really about: family, friendship, traditions, hope, and the joy of finding your way home.

So grab your boots, bring your family, and get ready for a Christmas celebration that's udderly unforgettable. Just don't ask whether the cow head is stuck.

Come join the hoedown and celebrate the season with us!
