Family Fare Review by: Carol, Dec 4, 2009 |
| This is the thinnest of plots, but the costumes, sets, and Irving Berlin score are entertaining family fare. |

Review the words to White Christmas, and go see the show! Review by: DivaCooksToo, Nov 29, 2009 |
| Old fashioned razzle dazzle in every number. An added bonus---a large company with a GREAT sound and wonderful production numbers. Nothing new with this one except for a return to quality standard the term BROADWAY embodied---a large orchestra in the pit, gorgeous costumes, and eally good singing and dancing and rterrific energy onstage. Tony Yazbik is a stand out in the reworked Danny Kaye track. Old school, old fashioned and lots of smiles ... read more at the end of the show----all the boys get all the girls. A feel good holiday rreat. |

| This show really puts you in the Christmas spirit! If you like dance production numbers, you will not be disappointed. The show doesn't drag and has a lot of action. |

White Christmas is a tonic for the battered human spirit Review by: Maureen, Nov 22, 2009 |
| If the world news and the economy have dampened your holiday spirit, go see White Christmas for an infusion of Christmas magic, nostalgia and charm. The acting is fine; the costumes and sets are fabulous; the music is as good as it gets. Of course, the storyline is dated....that's part of the charm. We loved it....Merry Christmas..... |

Review by: Juls, Nov 11, 2009 |
| This is a fantastic show for your whole family! The dance numbers are incredible, the story is heart warming. Plus, you don't have to celebrate Christmas to enjoy this show...the only thing Christmas about it is the one tree and the snow! |

Count Your Blessings... Review by: gcd, Dec 2, 2008 |
| I was in New York City this past week and was enchanted by the production of "White Christmas" now playing at the Marquis Theater on Broadway. If you are a fan of the movie, you know the silly story; there are no surprises there. The sets, the costumes, the choreography and most of all the Irving Berlin songs made my evening "merry and bright." The four leads were perfect for their roles and the ensemble of dancers/singers were outstanding! I am ... read more always amazed at how out of touch the critics can be... It is an old-fashioned Broadway musical that allows you to smile and laugh and cry and sing along (and even share in the snow!)... I am still humming the many memorable songs and am now in the Christmas spirit!!! A must-see to get rid of that, "Bah, Humbug!" attitude this season. |

Just Like the Ones We Used to Know Review by: Chip, Nov 30, 2008 |
| If you're looking for great entertainment, an escape from our economic woes, and a heart warming experience, run, don't walk to Irving Berlin's "White Christmas!" We've already made plans to see it again! This show is a wonderful throwback to "the good ole days" as you'll be able to leave the theater with a familiar song on your lips and a holiday spirit in your heart! |

A very Happy Holiday...do not miss this one! Review by: AN, Nov 25, 2008 |
| Experiencing "White Christmas" and on a very cold night will warm your heart! If you happen to adore the BIG Bdway productions of yesterday you'll love this one: Berlin's wonderful music, phenomenal choreography ("I love a Piano" is a show stopper), lovely sets and costumes, and a very accomplished cast are magical. We all know that the story is a bit hokey but who cares(ignore those Bah humbug reviews)...good music and pure entertainment ... read more will have you singing "Happy Holiday" and put a smile on your face. |

Ho-Ho-No Review by: G, Nov 19, 2008 |
| Sadly I disagree, this play I felt was not what I was expecting. I'm not saying not to go, but I was extremely bored. As a theater goer I have seen many different plays and never almost fell asleep. |

Not Meeting My expectations Review by: G, Nov 17, 2008 |
| This musical was disappointing. I went with my parents and my best friend and her family. The theater was very hot and cramped!!! I would have taken my grandmother who is into old musicals, but I don't think is was great. Don't forget about going it just was a bit boring. I have seen a lot of plays and never almost fell asleep. |

Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas Review by: Gigi, Nov 17, 2008 |
| Anyone who misses this show will be sadly dissapointed. It was beyond wonderful. It really got you into the Christmas spirit. The dancing and singing were excellent. They kept very much to the original while adding their own special touch. The theater was very nice and offered a little more leg room than we've had in most other theaters. The bathroom situation remains a problem at most of these theaters. All in all, it was one of the ... read more best Broadway experiences I have had in a long time. |

Irving Berlin's White Christmas is Quite the Present!! Review by: , Nov 16, 2008 |
Absolutely outstanding. If you have enjoyed the Hollywood movie classic you will fall in love with this Broadway production. The acting, singing, dancing (especially the dancing!!), sets, lighting costumes, and choreography are all wonderful. Oh, did I mention the dancing....
From someone who has been too often disatisfied with big Boradway shows, this is one that won't disappoint. The ticket prices are a bit high, even for Braodway,... read more, but this one is worth every cent!
