Irving Berlin’s White Christmas
Music and Lyrics by Irving Berlin
Book by David Ives and Paul Blake
Directed by Stephen Schellhardt
May your days be merry and bright.
Two-time Tony Award nominee.
Pageantry and spectacle come to life in this iconic holiday production. WWII is over, former GIs Bob and Phil have become a highly popular song and dance team who meet an equally talented up and coming sisters act. The men travel to a quaint ski resort in Vermont to watch sisters Betty and Judy perform. But once there, they realize the mountain resort is owned by their former General, who is about to lose it all. Plans begin to help save the beloved General and his business, which culminates in a show filled with epic dance numbers, spectacular costumes and a finale rendition of “White Christmas” that will make you a believer.
This family favorite brings generations together to celebrate the magic of the holidays.
