Jackie Hoffman's new solo show, Hebe for the Holidays, which was originally scheduled for a December 20-24 run at Joe's Pub, has announced an additional January 15 performance. Directed by Michael Schiralli, the piece features musical direction by Bobby Peaco.

Hebe for the Holidays is described as possibly answering the following questions: "What happens to a Jewish straight woman on a gay cruise during Rosh Hashanah/Yom Kippur?" and "How does an unwanted aging actress survive in a New York overtaken by billionaire's toddlers?"

A comedian and Broadway veteran, Hoffman has performed several other solo shows,
including If You Call This Living, The Kvetching Continues, Jackie Hoffman's Hanukkah, A Chanukah Charol, Jackie's Kosher Khristmas, and Jackie's Valentine's Day Massacre. On Broadway, she has been seen in Xanadu, Hairspray, and The Addams Family.
