Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer, is Coming to Town on December 13th!

See the touring production bring this magical story to life at the beautiful Thrasher-Horne Center Theater.

Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer, is the longest running television holiday special in history. The beloved stop-motion animated television classic made its network television debut in 1964, delighting audiences across the country. It has been on TV every year since.

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, The Musical, practically transports audience members into the television special as songs drive the plot while familiar and nostalgic set design with projections, costumes and characters are brought to the stage. “We address all of the familiar story elements from the television special with a talented cast and puppeteers who help recreate the magic on stage,” says Producing Partner Bob Penola.

For many families, watching Rudolph’s heartwarming adventure has become a holiday tradition that bridges generation gaps. Many people who grew up in the 60s and 70s have been watching it annually for their entire lives. Some have also had the pleasure of introducing their own children and grandchildren to the timeless story of Rudolph.

Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer, The Musical, had a very successful inaugural tour last year. “Because our run was so popular in 2014, we will have three tours this year in an effort to bring Rudolph and his friends to even more families and young theatergoers across North America. This holiday season, three North American tours will be visiting fifty cities,” says Producing Partner Jonathan Flom.

Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer, The Musical, will be presented live on stage at the Thrasher-Horne Center Theater on Sunday, December 13th. The first performance will be at 1:30 p.m. and the second will begin at 4:30 p.m.

Family 4-pack available for just $111

A Christmas Ritual: Come Thanksgiving week, I find myself checking the TV Guide to make sure I don't miss it. The little cottage in the Land of Misfit Toys continues to be my vision of 'coziness.'
Espirete from United States, 8 October 1998

The Ultimate Christmas Special: Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer, shall remain the king of all Christmas specials. All the characters are wonderful and memorable. A must see every Christmas.
Mario from San Antonio, TX, 24 September 2000

Christmas just wouldn't be the same without this: I could not imagine a Christmas that does not contain at least two viewings of this beloved holiday special. The music, the script, and the wonderful characters are combined to make something magical.
Brett from Santa Clarita, CA, 3 November 2002

Christmas Family Tradition: I'm 40 years old, and it would not be Christmas without Rudolph!! My kids and I watch it over and over in December. It has been a tradition in my life since I can remember. It brings back so many happy memories.

Rudolph - A True Family Event: I was just a kid when this first came on T.V., and I've never missed it since the beginning. I have watched it with my children, and hope that one day they will do the same.
Chuck from United States, 20 August 2009

A Timeless And Totally Charming Christmas Classic! Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer was first broadcast the year after I was born. I've seen it every year since. It's one of those magical shows that has the ability to bring you back a piece of your childhood. Now, I watch it with my daughter and I'm sure that one day she'll be watching it with her kids. It's truly timeless!

An Evening of Holiday & Hits with Michael McDonald

December 19^th at the Thrasher-Horne Center

He’s scheduled for sixteen tour dates between Thanksgiving and Christmas. In a recent interview by Diana Lasko of the Herald Standard in Uniontown, Pennsylvania, he said, "I have so much love for playing music live. It's what I've done since I was probably 10 years old. There's something about that connection with people. You have an instrument in your hand and you play music and it seems like you have a place in people's hearts and minds that I don't know how you could have any other way."

In seven years with the Doobie Brothers, McDonald recorded several big hits, including It Keeps You Runnin’, Takin' It to the Streets, and What a Fool Believes, for which he and co-writer Kenny Loggins were awarded a Grammy. In the 1980s, he embarked on a very successful solo career. He’s a remarkably versatile musician, and he has collaborated with a wide range of artists including Patti LaBelle, James Ingram, Carly Simon, Aretha Franklin, Van Halen, The Winans, and many others.

He is also renowned as a songwriter and was recently nominated for induction into the prestigious Songwriters Hall of Fame. In his interview with the Herald-Standard, he said, “I really feel great about it. I was very flattered to even be thought of in that category. I mean I have written songs, but it's one of those things where I have great admiration for a lot of people who deserve to be in the Songwriters Hall of Fame. I never thought I was one of them."

He recently recorded Miracle River in a duet with Judy Collins on her new record, Strangers Again. He also recently performed with David Sanborn and others in Johnnie Be Good, a documentary dedicated to the life and career of the legendary Johnnie Johnson.

Tavis Smiley recently interviewed McDonald about his holiday tour.

This Christmas

In 2009, McDonald released This Christmas, his third holiday album. The collection includes White Christmas, I’ll be Home for Christmas, and other traditional songs as well as a few songs that are less familiar.
