‘White Christmas’ hits a snag, check back Thursday for review
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Theater of the Stars’ “White Christmas” has gotten off to a bumpy start.
According to press agent Karen Hatchett, the set had a rough ride from its previous engagement in Savannah. When the trucks arrived at the Fox Theatre on Monday morning, the crew “realized that there are one or two pieces of the set that are damaged,” Hatchett reported.
The scenery is being repaired, but may not be ready in time for Tuesday night’s first performance.
Theater of the Stars has requested that reviewers wait until Wednesday night to see this all-new production based on 1954 film featuring the music of Irving Berlin. The show is directed by Jeff Calhoun, who staged last week’s “Disney’s High School Musical: The Ice Tour” at Philips Arena and also directed Theater of the Stars’ world premiere production of “High School Musical” at the Fox earlier this year.
The AJC review of “White Christmas” will be posted online Thursday and run in Friday’s papers.
