Meet the Icicles: unpredictable, exciting, comedic, and festive.<br><br>When Jonah Icicle decides to spend Christmas with his family and introduces his new boyfriend Sandy, everyone reacts differently. His mother Pam is combative, always judgmental to a fault, obnoxious, and loud. Jonah’s sister Willa adores the new man in her brother’s life and feels he will be a key player in their close unit. Willa’s husband Bobo suffers from hypersexuality and unfortunately can’t keep his hands off Sandy. And Jake, Jonah’s brother and Pam’s favorite son, is more interested in his marijuana than his relatives.<br><br>As the snow flies and the electricity goes out, the Icicles fight, hug, and laugh. Can they welcome the holiday spirit -- and Sandy -- into their lives?

The Icicles

Bobo says behind the vehicle’s steering wheel, “How long do we give Mom?”


“Three minutes. Not a second more,” Willa answers, sitting beside her husband in the front passenger seat.


Jonah and Sandy sit in the second row of seats. There’s enough room for Pam. If Bill decides to come, Jonah will have to slump over and sit on Sandy’s lap, cramped. No problem. This will give Bill and Pam plenty of room for the ride to The Flying Peking Duck for dinner.


Squeezed inside the rear compartment of the 4Runner, eating his kneecaps, Jake laughs, obviously high. “I’m going to light one back here, kids. Get ready for your fucking buzzes, bees.”


“No!” Willa and Jonah yell in unison at their brother, filling the vehicle.


Once quiet returns among the passengers, Bobo leans into his wife, thinks he’s whispering, even though everyone can clearly hear him, and says, “I’m getting hard between my legs. My dick is touching the base of the steering wheel.”
