About

One Woman. 10 Characters. Zero Filter.
Written by Janelle Ranek and Brenda Lucy. Performed by Janelle Ranek.

Janelle Ranek is back with an ALL NEW round of Letters to Santa!

This year’s brilliantly twisted lineup includes Larry Dyc, still on his relentless quest to get on Shark Tank; Nora Pearl, author of Don’t Touch the Raccoon and other children’s books, who visits the Vatican; and Candy, the campground host armed with nonstop nature advice and pro tips for what not to wipe with in the woods.

Then there’s Martha Greenleaf—teeming with Toastmasters confidence and Dale Carnegie optimism—motivating everyone from prison inmates to preschool teachers. Mary and her Christmas story return with Bethlehem, demon hunters, and cats. And as always, Gloria: the martini-swilling, crass old broad who doles out advice live.

The Star Tribune has called Ranek “consistently and viciously funny.” This year, Ranek was featured on KSTP’s Minnesota Live! with Meagan Newquist and Chris Egert. Check it out:

Co-created with her wife, Brenda Lucy, their fearless and unpredictable comedy style has earned a devoted following—fans who've made Letters to Santa their holiday tradition for more than 20 years. Make it yours, too!
