White Christmas is Super Sugary

“Irving Berlin’s White Christmas” is a short run show at the Marquis Theater. An adaptation of that famous movie, the show does its best to live up to the immortal classic, and has a sugary, syrupy feel that most  will love. The story is one of love and loyalty, of WWII veterans hooking up with some song and dance girls.

USAToday reports that “…it’s not just the comfortingly familiar score, to which several Berlin classics not featured in the movie have been added, among them I Love a Piano and How Deep Is the Ocean. Adapting the screenplay, David Ives and Paul Blake have left no sentimental stone unturned. The emphasis on love — between guys and dolls, but also of family and country — and honor in this tale of life after war would make any Hallmark greeting seem dry.”

“Each performer gets to model an array of eye-candy costumes, designed by Carrie Robbins to accommodate Anna Louizos’ gingerbread-house set. If that’s not enough spectacle, there’s a surprise at the end that may leave you tingling or feeling soggy, depending on your perspective.”
