Synopsis
Set in post-war America, White Christmas follows two World War II veterans who, capitalizing on their song-and-dance skills, venture to a Vermont lodge. There, they meet a pair of talented sisters and their former army commander, setting the stage for a series of heartfelt and humorous interactions. Featuring Irving Berlin’s classic score, including the iconic title song, the musical elegantly captures the spirit of the holiday season with nostalgia, romance, and a picturesque winter backdrop.
