For some people, holiday specials mean Perry Como or Rosemary Clooney. In the experimental theater world, December is the season of Taylor Mac.
This year the MacArthur awardee, playwright and performer of “A 24-Decade History of Popular Music” takes the annual “Taylor Mac’s Holiday Sauce” and gives it a pandemic twist, streaming Saturday, Dec. 12. “Holiday Sauce,” which came to the Curran in 2018, is Mac’s postmodern, ultra-queer musical take on the holiday specials and pageants you grew up with but spiked with doses of absurdity, wit and glamour. The show is also being released as a holiday album.
