Get ready to sing along with “White Christmas” movie

Posted

The audience will be the star and join a cast of Hollywood legends when Theater to Go hosts the “White Christmas Movie Sing Along,” one night only at 8 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 16, at the Kelsey Theatre on Mercer County Community College’s (MCCC) West Windsor, N.J., campus, at 1200 Old Trenton Road.

The classic, star-studded movie, with Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye, Vera-Ellen, and Rosemary Clooney, is now an interactive sing along and play along movie experience. “White Christmas” is a 1954 American musical war film featuring the songs of Irving Berlin, including the title song, which is featured twice during the film.

But the most important cast member in the sing-a-long is the audience, who are not only allowed, but encouraged, to sing along. The crowd participates to varying degrees, with some in full costume and others just along for the ride. Packed with audience participation activities and a goody bag of props to use throughout the movie, the audience will be guided by hosts to sing along and play along with the movie.

Some of the classic songs include “Sisters,” “Count Your Blessings Instead of Sheep” and’ of course, “White Christmas.” A prize will be awarded to an audience member in costume, plus there will be a special recognition for military members and veterans who attend in uniform. Come early for holiday treats and the “ugly sweater” contest.

The event will be led by Elizabeth Rzasa, Jeff Price and Tom Bessellieu, who will guide the activities, introduce the film and, of course, sing along with everyone.

Tickets are $22 for adults, $20 for seniors and students, and includes a goody bag. They may be purchased at kelseytheatre.org or 609-570-3333. Kelsey Theatre is wheelchair accessible, with free parking available next to the theater.
