Busy film, TV and stage actor Kevin Symons gets a call to star in a new musical extravaganza. What is the musical? Will he accept? Tune in.

How can Kritzerland make a Christmas show unusual and different? Well, you can either be exceedingly solemn and point the show in the 'Silent Night' direction, or pull out all the stops and run with the comedy. Kritzerland shows have one thing in common: they are never a drag. Bruce Kimmel sees to that whether Guy Haines is a guest or not. Solemn music? No, not in Kritzerland's nature! Fun, yes, always, as Kimmel's personality and anecdotes are full of the demon and amusingly interesting trivia about Broadway show tunes and Hollywood movie music. On Sunday December 2, at Sterling's Upstairs at the Federal, Kimmel and his fine singers: Dan Callaway, Damon Kirsche, Emma Degerstedt, Lisa Livesay, Jane Noseworthy, and Jenna Rosen with very special guest star Bill Hayes, a 40 year veteran of Days of Our Lives, were on hand to present and celebrate Broadway, film and rock/pop holiday cheer. Lloyd Cooper served as musical director/accompanist extraordinaire throughout the 90-minute set that made up Kritzerland Records' Christmas with a Little Bit of Hannukah and a Lot of Cheer.

Bruce Kimmel is a known record producer and director, but not everyone knows that he's a songwriter -- and a really good one. Aside from the songs he wrote for his musicals FIRST NUDIE MUSICAL and THE BRAIN FROM PLANET X, he's written some wonderful single songs -- some funny, some romantic, some charming.

Kritzerland at the Gardenia will present KIMMELSONGS on Wednesday, November 2, 2011 at 9 p.m. and 11 p.m.
