A White Christmas is Coming to Broadway
It'll be a White Christmas at the Marquis Theater in November. The travelling musical, a stage version of the Irving Berlin film starring Bing Crosby, is finally making its stop on Broadway (after stints in Boston, LA, Toronto, Minneapolis and Detroit since its 2004 premiere in San Francisco). The show, featuring a cast of more than 30 actors and a 24 musicians-strong orchestra, will run from Nov. 14 to Jan. 4.
Helmed by Walter Bobbie ("Chicago") with book by David Ives ("Is He Dead?") and Paul Blake, "Christmas" is based on the 1954 pic toplined by Bing Crosby. Plot centers on a song-and-dance duo who stage a show at a Vermont inn.
Randy Skinner ("42nd Street") provides the choreography, with a design team including Anna Louizos (set), (costumes), Ken Billington (lights) and Acme Sound Partners (sound).
