Becka, age twelve, and Boomer, age eight, are sisters whose parents are in the middle of a trial separation at Christmas time. Becka, a precocious computer hacker, has become cynical and withdrawn. Boomer tries to be the peacemaker, eternally positive and anxious for all around her to be happy. Their parents, Dean & Irene, both child therapists, disagree on how to deal with the problems of their own children.
While taking her sister to the mall to see Santa, Becka is goaded by her hacker friends into telling Boomer that there is no Santa, and when she does, this threatens to ruin Christmas for the family. While Dean and Irene try to deal with the fallout, the magical and mysterious Mrs. Rosen, comes into everyone’s lives and begins to change the equation. She challenges Becka to prove there is no Santa by using her computer to see if she can’t find him hooked up to a network somewhere. Becka, feeling more and more remorseful over what she has done to her sister, is intrigued by Mrs. Rosen’s challenge and by the end Dean and Irene have reconciled, Becka has a brighter outlook on life, Boomer gets her Christmas wish, and Santa…well, of course he’s real.

Stars From The Original Broadway Cast Of Jersey Boys:
The Midtown Men reunites stars from the Original Broadway Cast of the smash hit musical, Jersey Boys. Launched in 2010 from their three year rocket ride together bringing to life the sound story of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons, Broadway’s breakout vocal sensation is widely celebrated for their signature renditions of the iconic hits of the 1960s.
Together, they have played over 850 concerts across North America, Asia and Europe and have headlined over 35 major symphonies including The National Symphony and repeat engagements with The Boston Pops. Highlighted with their own high octane arrangements, slick moves and one of a kind repartee, their all new concert features even more iconic ‘60s music from The Beatles, The Beach Boys, Chicago, Elvis, The Temptations, The 4 Seasons and more! Television audiences across the nation have caught The Midtown Men’s concert specials, appearances on Good Morning America, The Today Show, The Chew, Katie, and Access Hollywood.
They have multiple musical releases: their debut Sixties Hits followed by Live InConcert and two holiday singles, the brand new Little Saint Nick and All Alone On Christmas,which they recorded with Stevie Van Zandt and Springsteen’s E Street Band. Thanks to 60s radio icon Cousin Brucie championing The Midtown Men sound, their relationship with SiriusXM listeners across the globe has cemented them alongside some of the original greats they emulate in the cornerstone of Iconic ‘60s pop music itself.

Celebrate the holiday season with a rockin’ Bob Seger tribute show at the fabulous Red Skelton Performing Arts Center!
SEGER SYSTEM – Ultimate Bob Seger Tribute was formed to honor and continue the musical legacy of Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band. SEGER SYSTEM re-creates the look, feel, and most importantly, the sound of one of rock’s revered icons by delivering an authentic representation of Bob Seger’s greatest hits. Based out of the Dallas, Texas area, SEGER SYSTEM has sold out multiple performing arts theaters, drawn capacity crowds at city concerts and music festivals as well as packed venues small and large with fans of all ages. SEGER SYSTEM was chosen to open concerts for Don Felder, formally of the legendary EAGLES and Bret Michaels of the band POISON. From the anthemic opening chords of “Old Time Rock And Roll” to the soulful melodies of “Against The Wind” and “Turn The Page” to the heart thumping rhythms of “Hollywood Night” and “Fire Down Below” and the reflective ballad of “Night Moves” every song is performed with care and attention to detail. Over two hours of greatest hits are in the que to keep fans wanting even more. SEGER SYSTEM hopes that everyone who leaves one of their concerts feels like they were at a real Bob Seger concert.
