White Christmas (With or w/out Black Christmas Double Bill)
Join us at the Rio Theatre on Saturday, December 23 for a night of Christmas cheer.... and fear! Our marquee is going full-tilt merry-merry with beloved Christmas classics this season, and we're presenting a night of movie awesome with a WHITE CHRISTMAS / BLACK CHRISTMAS double feature. See one, or see 'em both for the same sweet price!!
In beloved musical WHITE CHRISTMAS, icons Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye star as veteran singers Bob Wallace and Phil Davis, who join up with the sister act of Betty (Rosemary Clooney) and Judy Haynes (Vera-Ellen) to perform a Christmas show in rural Vermont. There, they run into the boys' former WW2 commander who, they learn, is having financial difficulties - his quaint country inn is failing. So what's the foursome to do but plan a yuletide miracle: a fun-filled musical extravaganza that's sure to put Waverly and his business in the black!
