Irving Berlin's Holiday Inn

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

The choice at the heart of Holiday Inn is anything but simple: the life you've built or the stage you left behind. On December 23, 2026 at 7:30 PM, Irving Berlin's Holiday Inn comes to Beef And Boards Dinner Theatre in Indianapolis as a live stage musical, not a film screening.

The songs do the heavy lifting, and they are songs you already know. The production draws on Irving Berlin's catalog, including Blue Skies, Easter Parade, Cheek to Cheek and White Christmas. Hearing familiar melodies inside a living, breathing story hits differently than hearing them through a speaker. You may find yourself smiling before the second chorus. Maybe humming along under your breath, too.

Then there is the story itself. Entertainer Jim walks away from show business for a Connecticut farmhouse. Alongside schoolteacher Linda, he turns it into an inn that puts on performances for different holidays. But his friend Ted wants Linda as his Hollywood dance partner, and that sparks the romantic tension. It is a tale of reinvention, of small-town calm against big-city glamour, and its calendar stretches across the year instead of stopping at Christmas. That gives the evening variety, heart and a little charm. Gather the family, invite a friend, or make it a date night in Indianapolis.
