Wednesday evening, a presentation of the holiday classic Miracle on 34th Street from the writer of the musical theater classic, the Music Man and based on the movie of the same name. Single mother, Doris Walker, doesn’t want her six-year-old daughter Susan’s head filled with romantic notions. Their neighbor, Fred Gailey, tries to woo Doris by charming Susan and taking her to see Santa Claus at Macy’s, where Doris works. Doris is not impressed, but when it turns out Macy’s santa may, in fact, be the real Kris Kringle, a wave of love spreads across New York City that melts even the most cynical hearts. Filled with humor, spectacle and such beloved songs such as, “It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas” and”Pinecones and Holly berries”. This joyous, heartwarming musical is pure entertainment.

Package includes transportation by motor coach, all you can eat dinner at the Eldorado Chef’s buffet and reserved seating in the show room.
