Irving Berlin's Holiday Inn

Irving Berlin's Holiday Inn at Beef And Boards Dinner Theatre

Some musicals wait for December. This one refuses to sit still. In Irving Berlin's Holiday Inn, a song-and-dance man walks away from show business, trades the spotlight for a Connecticut farmhouse, and discovers that a quiet life can still have a little showtime in it. If you want a night out that feels warm, romantic and familiar, Beef And Boards Dinner Theatre in Indianapolis has your date: December 10, 2026, at 7:30 PM.

Then come the songs. The production draws on Irving Berlin's catalog, including Blue Skies, Easter Parade, Cheek to Cheek and White Christmas. These are melodies many of us seem to know before we can say where we learned them. Hearing them inside a live stage story is a different pleasure from pressing play at home.

The story gives those classics somewhere to go. Jim and schoolteacher Linda turn the farmhouse into an inn that puts on shows for different holidays. Then Jim's friend Ted arrives with Hollywood ambitions and wants Linda as his dance partner. Suddenly the question isn't only who gets the spotlight. It's who gets her heart, and which life she wants. Because the setting spans the whole year, the evening offers more than one holiday mood. Bring a friend, a partner or family and make an Indianapolis night of it. Choose your seats and reserve your tickets for Holiday Inn here.
