FROM LAS VEGAS TO BRITISH COLUMBIA - “OH WHAT A NIGHT!” IS BACK WITH SOME SPECIAL “HOLIDAY SPARKLE”!

-

Returning to Canada by popular demand including a stop in Surrey, Kelowna and Victoria comes one of the most sought after musical tribute shows available today… OH WHAT A NIGHT! – “The Christmas Show”.

In this special holiday performanc­e the cast of “OH WHAT A NIGHT!” (the internatio­nally renowned tribute to Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons) celebrates the Christmas season with a brand new show that definitely creates “holiday sparkle”.

The cast will first warm you up with some of the most popular songs from their fast paced musical tribute to Frankie Valli and then transform you into a Christmas wonderland with a brand new tribute to “Mr. Christmas” himself – the great ANDY WILLIAMS & THE WILLIAMS BROTHERS.

“OH WHAT A NIGHT!” itself is an in-depth musical revue, bringing to life thirty of the Four Seasons' hits.

It's a captivatin­g tribute to the songbook of this Rock and Roll Hall of Fame super group with note-perfect renditions of the iconic "Jersey boys"! The show features 4 talented performers singing live that “feel good” music you grew up with that made the name Frankie Valli known around the globe.

“Everybody loves these songs. The melodies and harmonies are great to sing and the songs are always a special memory for somebody”, says producer George Solomon.

In the 1960’s and 70’s the ANDY WILLIAMS television show was a staple in households around the world and his annual Christmas shows were some of the most anticipate­d specials ever made. His “Moon River” Theatre (named after his signature song) was the first non-country music theatre to be opened in Branson Mo., and allowed this iconic performer to remain in front of his loyal fans until shortly before his passing.

The talented cast of “OH WHAT A NIGHT!” easily recreates the legendary sound of “Andy Williams and the Williams Brothers” with such songs as “It’s The Holiday Season”, “Jingle Bells”, “The Christmas Song”, “White Christmas”, “It’s The Most Wonderful Time of the Year” (which was written specifical­ly for The Andy Williams Show), and of course “Moon River”.

“We’ve performed this holiday version of the show as far away as Dubai”, said one of the cast members who has been with the show since the beginning… “But now having the opportunit­y to bring it to Canada is fantastic. We’re glad to be coming back - we love British Columbia” he said.

The four performers in the show will be the first to tell you that they are not “imitators” of the artists they pay tribute to.

“We love the music, and we perform it as we feel it should be performed based on its original sound, but we do not attempt to mimic the original performers” say the cast members.

Staying true to the original recordings this tribute to Frankie Valli & Andy Williams honours the talents of two American legends. Don’t miss this incredible musical experience.

"OH WHAT A NIGHT!" - The Christmas Show" will appear: Wednesday December 13 at the Community Theatre in Kelowna; Friday December 15 at the Bell Performing Arts Centre in Surrey; and Saturday December 16 at The McPherson Playhouse in Victoria. All shows at 7 PM, and tickets are now on sale.
