Guest List

MARTHA MAY BELLS
Heiress
Martha May Bells is an heiress who always gets what she wants—except for her secret childhood crush.

The neighbors get annoyed by Martha May during the holiday season because she is ultra-competitive with her Christmas décor.
Suggested Costume: Tacky but elegant Christmas sweater. Hair in an outrageous Christmas-inspired updo.

​

Suggested Costume: Tacky sweater. Tacky Christmas accessories to go with your sweater.

 

SAM MANGER
Dog Groomer
Sam Manger is the obnoxious dog groomer at Manger Mutt Cuts. Sam is an animal lover and takes excellent care of animals. However, this groomer usually has horrible ideas for pet haircuts.

Suggested Costume: Tacky sweater. Print off pictures of ridiculous dog grooming cuts to bring with you as your portfolio (optional).
