Captured live on 14 high-definition cameras at Roundabout's Studio 54. "Holiday Inn" will be available to watch on BroadwayHD.com on Saturday, January 14 at 8 p.m. ET. The critically acclaimed production of "Holiday Inn" opened on Broadway on October 6, with Variety exclaiming "Smashing performers, dynamic dancing and a lively orchestra make it the FEEL GOOD show of the fall!"

Just one year out from launch, BroadwayHD has made strides to promote, preserve and extend the reach of live theater to audiences across the country. The response from theater fans nationwide after history was made with the first-ever Broadway live stream of Roundabout Theatre Company's "She Loves Me" in June was overwhelming, indicating that fans are ready to embrace the stage-to-screen movement. BroadwayHD is excited to now preserve this amazing production of "Holiday Inn" to ensure this limited engagement lives on.

"Roundabout Theatre Company has been a great partner since the live stream of 'She Loves Me' and we are thrilled for the opportunity to work with them again," said BroadwayHD co-founders Stewart F. Lane and Bonnie Comley. "'Holiday Inn' is an incredibly special show that deserves to live on, particularly because of the iconic Irving Berlin score and captivating choreography performed by a stellar cast. Roundabout Theatre Company has once again put on a visually stunning production and we are honored to be able to share the magic with a larger audience."

"In the few months since we began, over 3,000 students and teachers have been given the opportunity to see and hear the magic of Irving Berlin performed by a cast of the most talented actors on Broadway at free or reduced rates. Additionally, nearly 20,000 Roundabout audience members and subscribers enjoyed this gem of a show for prices only a non-profit can offer, sometimes as low as $10. It's imperative to Roundabout that our shows remain accessible to everyone. So we are overjoyed now to bring the best of Broadway to audiences who otherwise wouldn't be in NYC to see us live," notes Todd Haimes, Roundabout Theatre Company's Artistic Director/CEO.

BroadwayHD monthly and annual subscribers around the world can watch the "Holiday Inn" live stream on BroadwayHD.com, Chromecast and BroadwayHD's Roku, Apple TV, iPad and iPhone apps.

This strictly limited run of "Holiday Inn" is the final production of Roundabout's celebrated 50th Anniversary Season and plays through January 15, 2017 only, at Studio 54. It's directed by Gordon Greenberg and choreographed by Denis Jones. With music and lyrics by Irving Berlin, the new book by Gordon Greenberg and Chad Hodge is inspired by the Academy Award-winning film "Holiday Inn." This performance of "Holiday Inn" will be produced in association with THIRTEEN Productions LLC and Universal Stage Productions, and directed for the screen by David Horn.

"Holiday Inn" tells the story of Jim, who leaves the bright lights of show business behind to settle down on his farmhouse in Connecticut ... but life just isn't the same without a bit of song and dance. Jim's luck takes a spectacular turn when he meets Linda, a spirited schoolteacher with talent to spare. Together they turn the farmhouse into a fabulous inn with sensational performances to celebrate each holiday, from Thanksgiving to the Fourth of July. But when Jim's best friend, Ted, tries to lure Linda away to be his new dance partner in Hollywood, will Jim be able to salvage his latest chance at love?

Major support for "Holiday Inn" is provided by The Blanche and Irving Laurie Foundation. "Holiday Inn" benefits from Roundabout's Musical Theatre Fund with lead gifts from The Howard Gilman Foundation and Perry and Marty Granoff.

"Holiday Inn" was originally developed at The Goodspeed Opera House, one of the country's most respected non-profit institutions.
