BWW JR: ANGELINA BALLERINA™ THE VERY MERRY HOLIDAY MUSICAL

Last year's holiday favorite ANGELINA BALLERINA™ THE VERY MERRY HOLIDAY MUSICAL returns to Vital Stage for another holiday season!  Based on the much-loved characters created by Katherine Holabird, now the stars of "Angelina Ballerina: The Next Steps" on PBS Kids, this musical, with book by Susan DiLallo (of Fancy Nancy The Musical) and music by Ben Morss, follows Angelina and her friends as they plan an absolutely positively spectacular holiday dance pageant - the best in all of Mouseland! When a mix-up prevents the pageant from going on, Angelina and her friends must use their creativity to save the show. By working together, Angelina, Alice, Gracie, AZ, Marco and Angelina's little sister, Polly, discover the true spirit of the holidays. It's not about things you receive, but the holiday cheer you share.
