Along with such reliable Christmas traditions as It’s a Wonderful Life, A Christmas Carol and The Nutcracker Suite, consider the annual return of Trans-Siberian Orchestra: Ghosts of Christmas Eve, a luminous blend of a heartwarming Christmas allegory and stirring concert performances by the acclaimed Trans-Siberian Orchestra.
Trans-Siberian Orchestra: Ghosts of Christmas Eve tells the tale of a runaway girl who seeks shelter in a long-abandoned theater, where an old caretaker (Ossie Davis) brings the theater to life one last time. Jewel, Michael Crawford and the Trans-Siberian Orchestra bring the magic of Christmas to both the girl and viewers everywhere and help turn her life around on a snow-filled Christmas Eve.
TSO’s rock operas — combining the dynamics of a symphonic orchestra with the power of a hard rock band — are the creation of O’Neill, who along with long-time collaborators Jon Oliva, Al Pitrelli and Bob Kinkel created a modern format for classic Christmas music.
