Video/Photos: Irving Berlin's WHITE CHRISTMAS At Marriott Theatre

Check out photos and video of Irving Berlin’s White Christmas, on stage at Marriott Theatre this holiday season, previewing on Wednesday, October 30, opening Wednesday, November 6 at 7:30pm and running through December 29.

Directed and choreographed by Linda Fortunato (two-time Jeff Award winner, Artistic Director of Peninsula Players, Marriott Theatre: Charlie Brown, Into the Woods, Married Alive) with Musical Direction by Jeff Award winner Brad Haak, White Christmas is jam packed with dazzling hits like “Blue Skies,” “Count Your Blessings,” “I Love a Piano” and the perennial holiday favorite and title song “White Christmas.” This uplifting classic will be a spectacular celebration of the most magical time of the year for the entire family to enjoy.

“So many people have a fondness and love for the 1954 movie White Christmas,” said director Linda Fortunato. “While the stage adaptation is not an exact retelling, it beautifully preserves the charm and nostalgia of the original film. At its heart, White Christmas is a story about community and connection. In relationships throughout the play, people come together to do for others, not for themselves. That spirit of selflessness and coming together for the good of others encapsulates the spirit of the holiday season and is a refreshing message in this divided world.”

White Christmas tells the story of two showbiz buddies Bob Wallace and Phil Davis, formerly old war comrades, who stage a winter pageant to save a struggling Vermont inn owned by their old commanding officer. Along the way, they meet their ideal matches - Betty and Judy Haynes, two talented performing sisters. With dazzling costumes, captivating dance numbers, and an unforgettable score, White Christmas will provide theatergoers a timeless tradition that has been enjoyed for generations!
