Sabrina Carpenter Brings Festive Fun That Will Jingle Your Bells with "A Nonsense Christmas" on Netflix

A Holiday Extravaganza

The special will feature a mix of original songs from Carpenter’s 2023 holiday EP, Fruitcake, and beloved Christmas classics. Musical guests include the legendary Shania Twain, pop stars Kali Uchis and Chappell Roan, and rising talent Tyla. Viewers can also look forward to a cast of comedic heavyweights like Quinta Brunson, Cara Delevingne, and Kyle Mooney, alongside fun cameos from actors such as Megan Stalter and Sean Astin.

More Than Just Music

A Nonsense Christmas will serve as a holiday variety show, blending musical performances with comedic sketches and unexpected duets. Carpenter, who is an executive producer alongside her sister Sarah, described the special as a deeply personal project. “The holidays have always been so special to me,” she said in a press release. “I am excited to bring my take to a classic holiday variety show — infusing my love of music and comedy to make something that is uniquely me.”

Sam Wrench, who directed Taylor Swift’s 2023 concert film The Eras Tour, helmed the production, ensuring a polished and captivating experience for audiences.

Riding High on Recent Success

The announcement follows a banner year for Carpenter, whose album Short n’ Sweet debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 in August 2024. Featuring hits like “Please Please Please” and “Espresso,” the album cemented her status as a pop powerhouse. Her performance at the MTV Video Music Awards, complete with dancing astronauts and aliens, showcased her knack for theatrical storytelling—a skill likely to shine in A Nonsense Christmas.

What to Expect

Fans can anticipate a joyous, lighthearted celebration perfect for the holidays. With its blend of music, comedy, and holiday cheer, A Nonsense Christmas promises to deliver both heartfelt moments and plenty of laughs.
