The show runs from December 10 (updated from December 9) though 31 as part of the theater's holiday performance series Tinsel: A Global Holiday Celebration, featuring effervescent live music, performance, and dance with leading artists from around the globe.
Today, Bradley commemorates the kick-off with a funky new single named for the series, "Tinsel," which premiered on Relix. Listen To "Tinsel" Holidelic Tickets & Info Holidelic Preview In Holidelic, Bradley plays the role of Papadelic, Funk's Father Christmas, an amalgamation of George Clinton and Santa Claus, featuring holiday-themed funk songs written by Bradley and brought to life by an array of top shelf noise makers.
The show debuted in 2002 after Bradley released a holiday album called Toy. "After 9/11, I felt like we all needed to heal, and the way I was going to do that was by writing Christmas songs," he explains. "Then I got the idea to combine two of my favorite things - Christmas and funk." From the moment Bradley stepped onstage in a big furry white coat, sunglasses and 6-inch platform shoes, audiences went wild & have been selling out night after night ever since.
