The 1954 film White Christmas is one of the best loved Christmas movies of all time, featuring the unforgettable songs of Irving Berlin. Since it was first brought to the stage in 2004, Irving Berlin’s White Christmas has been entertaining audiences with its festive spirit and timeless storyline. Each year there are a number of Christmas shows in London, but White Christmas remains one of the best loved and most popular amongst audiences and critics alike.
For those who have somehow managed to avoid the classic film, White Christmas follows the fortunes of two World War II army buddies, Bob Wallace and Phil Davis, as they become successful impresarios on New York’s Broadway. When an old army connection introduces Bob and Phil to Betty and Judy, the promise of romance fills the December air. A White Christmas theatre break will certainly be an unforgettable experience.
With a White Christmas theatre break, you can expect a magical trip to London. Over the Christmas period, the capital is alive with the bustle of Christmas shoppers and festive cheer, making a London theatre break at Christmas more exciting than at any other time of year. With the show itself, you can expect to hear all the classics, including White Christmas itself, sung by an incredibly talented cast. The show will be performing in the Vast Dominion Theatre (former home to We Will Rock You), which will make this famous show even more epic.
