The Night Shift Before Christmas is approximately 75 minutes with no intermission.
This warm-hearted comedy contains some Language, a brief reference to a Sexual Situation, and a spirit who smokes marijuana as Margot grapples with grief and death on one unusual, meaningful and ultimately life-affirming Christmas Eve.
