Photo Flash: WHITE CHRISTMAS at Marriott Theatre

The Marriott Theatre gets a head start on holiday cheer with its production of Irving Berlin's WHITE CHRISTMAS. This brand new musical will preview October 19th, open October 26th, and run through January 1, 2012 at The Marriott Theatre, 10 Marriott Drive, Lincolnshire, Illinois. The dazzling score accompanied by the timeless adaptation of the adored film makes for an uplifting production that is sure to be the highlight of this holiday season. This must-see production will be directed and choreographed by Marc Robin, with musical direction by Michael Mahler.

One of America's most beloved silver screen classics is now a brand new stage musical. WHITE CHRISTMAS begins when two former army buddies, turned Broadway song and dance men, follow a sister act booked at a lodge in Vermont. They soon discover that the lodge is owned by their former Army commander, General Waverly. However, with no snow and no customers, the General is nearly bankrupt. To save the lodge, the two acts team up and put on a show packed with Irving Berlin hits like "Blue Skies," Count Your Blessings," "I Love a Piano," and, of course, "White Christmas." Perfect for the entire family, Marriott audiences will dream of tree tops glistening and sleigh bells in the snow as WHITE CHRISTMAS celebrates this magical time of year.
