“Seasonal Allergies”, Kelsey Theatre

Sunday November 30, 2025
2:00 PM

“Seasonal Allergies” is a story about a group of friends in their late 30’s getting together during the holiday season. Julia and Thomas are a successful and quirky couple living in NY with their karate-loving child, Charlie. Julia, a professional chef, loves hosting their friend group for all of the important holidays. Alison, a no-nonsense and very pregnant lawyer and her florist, football-loving husband JD love to come over and eat all of their delicious food. Julia’s brother Pete, a neurotic (yet loveable?) dentist, has not been around lately due to grappling with his recent divorce; yet when he finally decides to make a return to the group, hilarity ensues…especially when he steals a Christmas tree from Julia and Thomas’ neighbor’s yard, who just so happens to be a young widow. $24/22 PG
