dreaming...

I saw the Arts Club production of “White Christmas” this evening. I typically wouldn’t watch the movie adaptation so shortly before attending a theatrical adaptation but in this case I have the movie memorized anyway. The production this evening did alter the plotline to incorporate more Irving Berlin songs and suit the limitations of the stage. The greatest weakness I felt this adaptation exhibited was the need to talk through each character motivation and subtle portrayals that the original cast of “White Christmas” had. Overall I had a great time and there were several large tap numbers which was awesome.
