Melanie Mayron (Thirtysomething) and Sandra Tsing Loh (NPR) share old and new humor for trying times in Grief Bacon and Other Holiday Treats, a quick evening of (much-needed) amusement presented as part of Odyssey Theatre Ensemble’s Thresholds of Invention series. The term “grief bacon” comes from the German “kummerspeck,” aka: “weight gain from emotional overeating.” And yes, if the world’s just all too much, you can wear your pajamas.
