The have-Santas vs. the have-nots in a device-ive lampoon of 'Twas the Night Before. . . set in the Bronx and involving a red-suited Moshe Dayan-type on a flying draydle who whirls our boy Murray around the world where everybody's celebrating something different(ly). . . so he shouldn't feel left out. . . all in a parochial-colloquial idiom that nobody really uses today. Chanukah it is not, commercial maybe.
