The New York Pops and Carnegie Hall presented A Charlie Brown Christmas in their annual Family Concert on December 20th and BroadwayWorld was there for the morning rehearsal- check out photos below!
This staged concert version of the iconic television special brings the whole Peanuts gang to life through original choreography by director/choreographer Liza Gennaro, as performed by dancers from New York Theatre Ballet. Returning to The New York Pops Family Concert this season, Broadway actor John Bolton (Spamalot, Contact, Titanic) will narrate the classic Christmas tale, with additional characters voiced by students from TADA! Youth Theater. Judith Clurman's Essential Voices USA will join The New York Pops to perform Vince Guaraldi's memorable score.
The Family Concert is one of three holiday concerts performed at Carnegie Hall this December by The New York Pops. On Friday, December 18 at 8:00PM and Saturday, December 19 at 8:00PM, Mr. Reineke and the orchestra perform It's Christmas Time in the City.
