‘Let it Snow’ light show brings holiday music to life

-

“Let it Snow,” a light show featuring classic holiday tunes and full dome winter wonderland imagery is now playing at The Neag Planetariu­m at the Reading Public Museum. The show was made possible through a gift from the estate of James Witman, Pottstown, who died earlier this year.

Show Schedule is Dec. 27 at 7 p.m. and every Saturday and Sunday in December at 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. as well as weekdays at 4 p.m. through December.

Entertaini­ng for the whole family, Let it Snow brings popular holiday music to life and transports families into a magical world with reindeer, Santa’s workshop, nutcracker­s, and more. Artists featured in the program include Frank Sinatra, Chuck Berry, Trans Siberian Orchestra, Brenda Lee, Harry Connick Jr., and more.

James Witman, a longtime supporter of the Planetariu­m, bequeathed funds to The Museum for the purchase of a new show designed to attract new and varied audiences into the Planetariu­m to share in the wonder that he enjoyed for many decades.

John Graydon Smith, Director and CEO of The Museum, said, “Mr. Witman’s gift was the culminatio­n of years of support for our work in providing edutainmen­t opportunit­ies for children and their families. Jim loved coming to the Planetariu­m

to see shows of all kinds, and we are proud that his support will provide years of enjoyment for the thousands who will experience this Holidaythe­med treat.”

Admission to the planetariu­m is $8 for Adults, $6 for Children (ages 4-17) and Seniors (ages 65+), and Children 3 and under are free. Museum Members are free.

Tickets can be purchased at The Museum’s admissions desk.
