    The playbill for Taylor University's performance of White Christmas. Book by David Ives & Paul Blake. Music & lyrics by Irving Berlin.

    Performed November 11-13, 18, 20 & December 2-4, 2022 at the Mitchell Theatre.

    White Christmas is a heartwarming musical based on the 1954 film of the same name, with a book by David Ives and Paul Blake, and music and lyrics by Irving Berlin. The story follows two World War II veterans, Bob Wallace and Phil Davis, who have become successful song-and-dance performers. They team up with a sister act, Betty and Judy Haynes, and travel to Vermont for a Christmas show at a struggling inn owned by their former commanding officer, General Waverly. Through misunderstandings and romantic entanglements, the group works together to save the inn and bring holiday cheer. The musical features classic songs like "White Christmas" and "Blue Skies," and celebrates themes of friendship, love, and the magic of the holiday season.
