Based on the classic 1942 film by Universal Pictures starring Bing Crosby and Fred Astaire, Holiday Inn, the new Irving Berlin Broadway musical, tells the story of Jim Hardy 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 Mason, 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 Hanover tries to lure Linda away to be his new dance partner in Hollywood, will Jim be able to salvage his latest chance at love?
This joyous new musical features thrilling dance numbers, laugh-out-loud comedy, and a parade of hit Irving Berlin songs including "White Christmas," "Happy Holiday," "Blue Skies," "Steppin' Out with My Baby," "Shaking the Blues Away," "Easter Parade," "Cheek to Cheek" and "Heatwave."
