A Community Holiday Musical Revue for Kids and their Whole Family!

Community actors have gathered their talents to produce a light-hearted musical revue great for kids and their families this holiday season

JOSHUA TREE, CA – "A White Christmas in the Blak Box" is a special community production Holiday Musical Revue that features a variety of Holiday songs and dances like the opening song from “A Farndale Christmas Carol” and that amazing Christmas Eve scene from “Another Day In Baghdad,” both of which won coveted regional awards from the Desert Theatre League for their excellence. It also includes traditional Christmas favorites such as "White Christmas," "Santa Baby," "We Need a Little Christmas" and many more.

Show creator/director Rebecca Havely is last year’s recipient of the Desert Star Award for Best Director and a nominee for direction for “Crimes of the Heart” this last season. She will be singing in the revue alongside actors Corbett Brattin, Manuel Rincon, Sherry Powell, and Lorraine Williamson, and will feature the talents of Chris Hernandez, Jericho McWilliams, J.J. Pulu, Izzy Pulu, Bobo Tuli, Nick McCloud, Courtney Niles, Ashlee Nixon, Wendy Powell, Jacqueline Dilling, Brad Holt, Robert Spoecker and Randy Taylor.

The show includes many surprises and a sing-a-long with the audience. There will even be a visit from Old Saint Nick himself as he lands on the roof in 7.1 surround sound, then stays during intermission, so don't forget your cameras! It is a high energy variety show chock-full of Christmas Spirit! Perfect for kids from 1 to 92. Bring the entire family for an entertaining show that will keep you singing well into the New Year!
