Way Off Broadway Celebrates The Holiday Season With SILVER BELLS

The Way Off Broadway Dinner Theatre, Frederick's only year-round producing theatre, is not only in the midst of it 25th Silver Anniversary Season but it is planning to celebrate its 25th Christmas show with the brand new musical Silver Bells.

Always the most popular production of the season, Way Off Broadway's holiday show is full of Christmas cheer. Popular Christmas songs from the past and present are brought together in one fun-filled show the entire family will enjoy. There really is nothing like a Christmas show at Way Off Broadway. No matter what the setting - a department store just days before Christmas, the New York City penthouse of a modern day Scrooge, a cottage in the woods, or a 1950's radio station - they all have one thing in common; the joy of the season.

Of course, what would any Way Off Broadway Christmas show be without Santa's elves stopping by to do a few musical numbers. It never fails, from year-to-year, as people call to purchase their tickets for the holiday show, at least half of them ask if the elves will be back. Without a doubt, they've become a true staple of Christmas at the theatre.

For all the fun and laughs though, Way Off Broadway makes it a point to never forget the true meaning of Christmas, always including some variation of a living Nativity to tell the story of the very first Christmas.

Silver Bells features performances by Jessica Billones, Katharine Ford, Patrick Ford, Jaimie Lea Kiska, Melissa Ann Martin, Sarah Melinda, Jordan B. Stocksdale, Jeremy Trammelle, Joseph Waeyaert, and Megan E. West.

The show runs November 24 - December 22, 2018, with performances every Friday and Saturday evening, and matinees on the 1st, 3rd, and 5th Sunday of each month. For evening performances, guests arrive for dinner at 6:00 p.m. with the show beginning at 8:00 p.m. For matinees, doors open at 12:30 p.m. for lunch with the show beginning at 2:15 p.m. Tickets for a Friday evening or Sunday matinee are $46; Saturday evenings, tickets are $50. Tickets may be purchased by calling the Box Office at (301) 662-6600.

Also for the holidays at Way Off Broadway will be the special Family Theatre presentation of The Great Elf Adventure opening December 1st and the theatre's annual Breakfast with Santa (and Mrs. Claus) on December 22nd, 23rd, and 24th.
