Winnie (Erwin Keller), Ben Schatz (Rachel), Jeff Manabat (Trixie) and Trampolina (Spencer Brown) make up the popular “dragapella beautyshop quartet” The Kinsey Sicks, specializing in tricky four-part harmony. The queens return to D.C.’s Theater J for a second year of its popular holiday-themed show, Oy Vey in a Manger — with two actual shows on Christmas Day, if you’re looking for something to do. “This show is part of our global effort to stamp out holiday cheer,” says Keller. “I think it’s lifetimes of annoyance with the holiday season, all just filled into an hour and a half of displeasure, [intended as] some comeuppance against the Muzakization of Christmas music.” Saturday, Dec. 24, at 8 p.m., Sunday, Dec. 25, at 3 p.m. and 7:30 p.m., and Monday, Dec. 26, at 7:30 p.m. The Aaron & Cecile Goldman Theater, Washington, D.C.’s Jewish Community Center, 1529 16th St. NW. Tickets are $25 to $60. Call 800-494-TIXS or visit theaterj.org.
