COMEDY: Bay Area comedian Will Franken performs his latest one-man show, Texas Chainsaw Yuletide, in which he'll "employ his manifold, manic, multiple personalities to bring life to characters such as Father McJagger, who shows the children at the orphanage Texas Chainsaw Massacre every Christmas Eve" and "a Missouri-bound, Los Angeles transplant who's unable to get her car started because--she's sitting in the wrong seat."
