Suzyn Waldman, longtime voice of the New York Yankees, returns to the Westchester Broadway theatre in the holiday musical Christmas Inn.

In addition, Allison Spratt - last seen as Jenny Lind in WBT's Barnum - has replaced Julie Toliver as Linda.

In Christmas Inn (book by Kathy Keating Wheeler and Bob Fitzsimmons, music and lyrics by Stephen Silverstein and Kathy Keating Wheeler), "the merriment begins when two famous entertainers, Buddy Baker and Bill Brewer who had split up their act are both booked to headline the traditional holiday show at the Inn. The team of Baker and Brewer who have dominated the comic scene for the past twenty years have now decided to go solo, after almost coming to blows on stage.  Enjoy an evening of holiday music, laughter, and a story of Christmas magic, as the families of the feuding stars try to get them to reunite and recreate the act which made Baker & Brewer famous. Performed by a Broadway cast, the show features Christmas music, including an old-fashioned sing-along," state press notes. 

Joining its Broadway cast, WBT will welcome back Waldman (the radio voice of the New York Yankees) who will appear as Maxine, Baker & Brewer's longtime manager. 

Bob Amaral (Good News, Holiday Extravaganza) will play the role of Buddy Baker, and Tony Lawson (Barnum) will be returning to play Bill Brewer. Others featured in the cast are Adam Zelasco (Hot Mikado) as Sam, Jenna Dellaco (Oliver!) as Becky, Gary Troy (Oliver!) as Santa Claus, and Dante Russo as John.

Performances start on November 22 and run Wednesday through Sunday at the Westchester Broadway Theatre in Elmsford, NY.  Dinner and lunch show prices range from $55.00 to $72.00.  Call (914) 592-2222 or order tickets online at www.broadwaytheatre.com.
