Description
Merry Christmas, fellow filthy Broadway animals! We've moved on from the movie musical into the holidays, and this Irving Berlin musical covers all of them. Christmas, Thanksgiving, Fourth of July, Arbor Day, Labor Day... Let's check into the Broadway adaptation of the classic ’40s movie musical "Holiday Inn," filmed live in 2017 for Broadway HD. This musical has everything: jump rope tapping, firework dancing, and a little Hallmark Channel romance realness. So snuggle up with your apple pie and a cup of hot chocolate (or whatever floats your Christmas boat), and welcome to the Holiday Inn! Note: This episode contains some (mostly irreverent, but still) discussion of blackface. If this topic is any way triggering for you, skip ahead after the plot summary to the next musical break. --- Film: BroadwayHD | Amazon Video Cast recording: iTunes | Spotify | Amazon Prime Filmed and distributed exclusively by Broadway HD Music: "I'll Capture Your Heart," performed by Bryce Pinkham and Corbin Bleu "Blue Skies," by Bryce Pinkham "Heat Wave," by Corbin Bleu and Megan Sikora "You're Easy to Dance With," by Corbin Bleu and Ensemble "Shaking the Blues Away," by Megan Lawrence, Bryce Pinkham and Ensemble "White Christmas," by Lora Lee Gayer and Bryce Pinkham Music and lyrics by Irving Berlin Album distributed by Ghostlight Records Show Notes: No show notes this week, just this music video of Holidae In by Chingy that should've been a musical number.
