What most excites me is the portrayal of someone who takes action to fulfill his hopes and dreams, and is blessed with the fulfillment of other desires that are in his heart.

White Christmas is my all time favorite holiday movie. To see it on stage would be amazing! I’ve even got my two young daughters (5yr & 2yr) enjoying and anticipating it every year…getting the next generation in our family started young on this family tradition!

I would love to see any holiday play with my family for Christmas. All my children love to see plays, but we don’t go that often. What a night to remember!
Noelle McCann said
This would be the perfect show! We watch the movie every year and now we can see it live. I’m hoping my girls catch the theater “bug” so that I can one day see them on the stage!

I would love to share a night out with my hubby and sons. My oldest son is really enjoying the upcoming Christmas season already. We are learning all of the songs. I think this play will capture the magical feeling of Christmas that brings the giddiness out in all of us.

I would love to see the singing and the dancing…I think it would be a treat to bring my Grandma, my Mom, and daughter to this show. All generations would walk away with the Christmas Magic after the show.

Who doesn’t love white Christmas. My absolute favorite part is when the colonel is surprised by his old troops at the performance and he walks through in uniform

This musical sounds like it will be filled with wonderful holiday music with a great story! My 4-year old daughter who is in dance has never seen a musical would love to be able to see characters on stage dancing and singing…couple that with cheerful holiday music and she and the rest of us will be thrilled!

I love White Christmas because of how it’s a great example of how people can pull together to support one another until the end. I also appreciate the underlying theme of patriotism that is displayed in the storyline, when the soldiers come back together to support their leader. What a timeless classic.
Maggie S said
White Christmas seems to be a very positive and uplifting story that people of all ages can enjoy. Who doesn’t love laughter, dancing, and good music?! My three daughters and I would find great joy in experiencing White Christmas on stage!!! Not to mention it’s playing on my birthday …December 11th.

One of my absolute favorites, I always watch that and Holiday Inn with Bing also (which was actually the first recording of White Christmas the song and not the actual movie) every year. “Sisters, sisters…” Good stuff.
Erin Sneller said
White Christmas has been a Christmas tradition in my family ever since I can remember. Taking my Mom and Dad to this show would be the perfect present for both of them!
Lisa said
Believe it or not I’ve never seen White Christmas, so winning tickets would be great and TWO generations would be able to start a tradition. Vermont is actually one of my favorite places too so a great setting I never related to White Christmas. What a blessing it’d be to win!
Lisa Sarver said
Every year me, my sisters and my mom watch White Christmas, we would love to this live preformance.
Elizabeth said

Kristen said
I would be excited to see the songs performed live.
Robin said
This is, by far, my husband’s favorite Christmas movie. What a thrill it would be for him to be able to watch a live performance of it! It would be his Christmas present! as he is disabled and we live on a fixed income.
Sara Archer said
It’s been a family tradition to watch White Christmas since my husband and I first married. Now, my kids also enjoy singing along to the songs, especially the “Snow” song sung on the train. Whenever, the kids get excited for the snow, they sing it. They’ve never been to a live musical before and it sounds like a lot of fun. We just saw them on TV at the Santa Claus Parade in GR, so we’re excited to see more.

I would love to win tickets to White Christmas! It is my favorite movie, and so many of our holiday traditions center around it. I watch it with my kids every year on the day we get our first snowfall. I help my Uncle decorate his tree every year, and we watch it then, and we get a HUGE group together to go see it every year at Celebration Cinema! Seeing it live on stage would be a wonderful gift!

Are family is a big fan! We have the original Video plus we go to “Celebrating the Classics” at Celebration Cinema. It would be great if we could see the live version at Cornerstone University!
