Lexington Live Community Theatre announces production of White Christmas
Lexington Live Community Theatre is pleased to announce the production of White Christmas
December 8th -11th.
White Christmas is a musical based on the Paramount Pictures 1954 film of the same name. The book is by David Ives and Paul Blake, with music and lyrics by Irving Berlin.
Two World War II vets have become partners in a song-and-dance act after the war. Looking for love, they follow a duo of beautiful singing sisters to a gig at a Vermont lodge, which happens to be owned by their former army commander General Waverly.
The production will be at Arts/Theatre 202, the new home for Lexington Live Community Theatre, Arts Davidson County and Lexington Youth Theatre. The address is 202 N. Main Street, Lexington, NC. Show dates and times are December 8 , 9 , and 10 at 7:30 p.m. and
