That's right folks. The holiday season is almost here. What better way to celebrate than by coming to New York and seeing a show. From dramas to to comedies, to plays or musicals there is something for everyone this year. Now as we all know no holiday would be complete without the Radio City Christmas Spectacular featuring the world famous Rockettes. The show which is now in it's 77th recording breaking year began performances last week and will run into the end of the year. Good seats are still available so call now. Your holidays will not be the same without it my friends.
Next up is Elf. This new musical which is based on the 2003 starring Will Farrell is now in previews at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre and will play thru January, 2, 2100. The movie is a personal favorite of mine and I hope that the show will be just as successful. Who knows? Broadway might have a new holiday tradition on their hands. Watch out Rockettes. Buddy the Elf is on your tail. This winter will mark the final year for Cirque de Soleil's Wintuk.
This winterland extravaganza will play thru January 2,2011 at the Theatre at Madison Square Garden.
Now I never bought into the whole Cirque de Soleil phenomenon. It just doesn't do it for me. However there is no denying their success over the years. A perennial holiday favorite is George Balanchine’s The Nutcraker. I remember seeing this as a young child during my first trip to New York City and it was an experience that I would never forget. If you get the chance to see it I highly recommend it. Last but not least is Donny and Marie: A Broadway Christmas. Now I'll admit that I chuckled a little bit when this was first announced.
Not that I mind them. In fact I used to watch them when I was a kid. I just never expected to see them in a big Broadway show in 2010.Well evidently I was wrong as they just announced today that the show has been extended for an additional nine performances for a total of 21. Performances are set to begin at the Marquis Theatre on December 9 and will run thru December 30. So there you have it folks. Which one will you choose? Why not see them all? After all Christmas only happens once a year. Until next time theatre fans.
