Pioneer Theatre Company Presents IT HAPPENED ONE CHRISTMAS

By:

Pioneer Theatre Company presents It Happened One Christmas, December 4 - 19, 2015. It Happened One Christmas is a new musical revue created by Karen Azenberg and Kenneth Jones specifically for the Pioneer Theatre audience. Set in an abandoned vaudeville theatre in downtown Salt Lake City, we learn of a (fictitious) legend that says if Salt Lake City has snow on Christmas, it's because of what happens in that theatre. They say that every Christmas Eve, ever since this theatre shut down, the Ghosts of Past Shows reappear here for a midnight frolic - a revue, a concert - to relive their heyday, to celebrate the season and to urge Father Christmas to cover the world with snow. If Santa Claus approves of this show, the city gets some of that fabled white stuff.
The evening will be comprised of traditional songs, with less traditional arrangements, musical theatre and pop favorites, dance, spoken word segments - and who knows what else?

Performances: Mondays - Thursdays, 7:30 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays, 8:00 p.m. Saturday matinees, 2:00 p.m. WHERE: Simmons Pioneer Memorial Theatre 300 South 1400 East, Salt Lake City

PRICES: $40 - $62 in advance, and $5 more when purchased on the day of the show Kids in grades K-12 are half-price on Mondays and Tuesdays

EARLY BIRD DISCOUNT: $5 off the cost of Main Floor and Loge seating for the first seven performances, when tickets are purchased on or before Friday, November 27, 2015. MORE INFO: Box Office: 801-581-6961 Open 10:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m., Mon - Fri www.pioneertheatre.org
