The Historic Holly Theater in Dahlonega, GA

Holiday Musical

Book by Walton Jones. Based on an idea by Walton Jones and Carol Lees. Music by various composers.

 A different time is evoked in this marvelously theatrical and winning show, a live broadcast of a The Mutual Manhattan Variety Cavalcade from the Hotel Astor's Algonquin Room on December 21, 1942. The spirit of that bygone era when the world was at war and pop music meant "Strike Up the Band" and "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" is accurately captured as the harassed producer copes with a drunk lead singer, the delivery boy who wants a chance in front of the mike, the second banana who dreams of singing a ballad, and the trumpet player  man who chooses a fighter plane over Glenn Miller.

 Shows:  December 4, 5, 6, 11, 12^, 13, 18, 19^th and 20^th at 8 pm
               December 7^th and 14^th at 2 pm (Saturday night closing)
