The Radio City Christmas Spectacular Starring The World-Famous Radio City Rockettes!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas in NYC with the store windows, lights and ice rinks all over, but for many, it just does not feel like Christmas until the lovely ladies of the world-famous Radio City Rockettes are doing their eye high kicks in the Radio City Christmas Spectacular!

If you are one of those people then it is safe to feel like the holidays are here because the Radio City Christmas Spectacular opened on November 5th and will run until December 30, 2010. This year will mark year 78 for America's #1 Christmas show and will feature dynamic Rockette performances, breathtaking special effects, gorgeous costumes and astounding scenes.

“As we embark on another glorious year of the Radio City Christmas Spectacular, we are saluting one of the most beloved entertainment institutions in the world and the millions of patrons that have made this show part of their holiday tradition year after year,” says Don Simpson, executive vice president of productions for Madison Square Garden Entertainment. “We want the experience to begin for our patrons the moment they walk through the doors at Radio City, from the interior of the Music Hall to the performance on stage.”

The 2010 edition of the Christmas Spectacular will include dramatic theatrical lighting effects, breathtaking imagery, flying characters and an array of glamorous costumes that only Radio City can deliver. The entire look and feel of the Music Hall and the Christmas Spectacular will be very interactive as the show embraces its patrons and takes them on this magical journey. Production elements such as Santa flying over the Great Stage an actual double-decker gray line tour bus, fireworks and original content are created and enhanced to utilize the state-of-the-art technology from the world’s largest flying indoor LED screen. Their is even a 3-D film!

I cannot wait to experience this show for the very first time! I feel like it is one of those things that you have to see and do a least once in your lifetime! I love the magic of Christmas and this show. The Rockettes and the Christmas Spectacular are such pop culture icons (you know I love pop culture) and I just know that I will be sitting there grinning like a kid opening presents on Christmas day.
