Irving Berlin's Holiday Inn

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

An inn that opens for holidays sounds like a fresh start—until Hollywood comes calling for the woman Jim loves. Irving Berlin's Holiday Inn gives you a reason to get out of the house and step into one. On December 19 at 7:30 PM, Beef And Boards Dinner Theatre in Indianapolis brings this stage musical to life, and the songs alone may have you humming before the first act ends. Blue Skies. Easter Parade. Cheek to Cheek. White Christmas. Those Irving Berlin standards are named in the local description, and they carry the kind of familiar warmth that makes a night out feel like a gift.

The story gives those songs a heart. Entertainer Jim walks away from show business for a Connecticut farmhouse, hoping for a quieter life. Then he meets schoolteacher Linda, and the two turn the farmhouse into an inn that stages performances for different holidays. It is a story about starting over, about the pull between country calm and Hollywood sparkle, and about what happens when a dream you thought you'd left behind comes knocking again.

Then comes the complication. Jim's friend Ted wants Linda as his Hollywood dance partner, and the romance gets tangled. The year-round holiday setting also means the night isn't limited to Christmas alone. Bring someone you love, or bring the whole family tradition-minded crowd.
