More from Deadline
Rasche (Succession, VEEP) and Winningham (Girl from the North Country, Georgia) will play Bill and Ginny Dahl, the parents of a fractured family. The synopsis: “It’s the holiday season for the Dahl family! The four adult children return to their childhood home with partners in tow. The Dahl traditions include singing carols in harmony at the drop of a hat, but the gathering is anything but harmonious. Old conflicts resurface, new issues battled, and dinner is taking absolutely forever to be served. Will the love the Dahls have for each other be enough to get them through, or will this be their last Christmas together?”
Rasche’s Broadway credits include David Mamet’s Speed-The-Plow, Lunch Hour with Gilda Radner and the Pulitzer Prize-winning The Shadow Box. Winningham’s Broadway credits include a revival of Picnic, Casa Valentina and a Tony-nominated performance in the Bob Dylan musical Girl From the North Country, a role she originated Off Broadway.
