Based on the beloved, timeless film, this heartwarming musical adaptation features seventeen Irving Berlin songs and a book by David Ives and Paul Blake. Veterans Bob Wallace and Phil Davis have a successful song-and-dance act after World War II. With romance in mind, the two follow a duo of beautiful singing sisters en route to their Christmas show at a Vermont lodge, which just happens to be owned by Bob and Phil’s former army commander. The dazzling score features well known standards including “Blue Skies,” “I Love A Piano,” “How Deep Is the Ocean” and the perennial favorite, “White Christmas.”

DRAGGIN’ OUT – GHCT Fundraiser on Nov. 2

GHCT_ Draggin OutIt’s back by popular demand!! The ladies, members and friends of GHCT had so much fun last year spending the evening with Cincinnati-area drag queens getting “painted,” choosing their hair, finding a costume and then putting on one spectacular drag show, that we just had to do it again!!

On November 2, 2013 we will host Draggin’ Out at the Palace. The event is open to all women who want to spend the evening having fun and helping raise funds for the arts! Beginning at 7 pm, ladies will be directed to a station to pick their “sickening costume,” have their hair “jacked up,” or be “painted for filth.” During this time, we will provide beer, wine and appetizers.

At 10 pm, we will put on a show for neighbors, family and friends. Not a singer? Not to worry! Drag queens always lip-synch, so all you have to do is strut your stuff! All of the tips raised in the drag show will benefit The Palace.

A new twist this year is that the queen who raises the most money will become the Queen of our Palace! She will be Miss GHCT and will get her very own drag queen crown!

Space at the makeup table is limited. Be sure to make your reservations today by calling 513-737-PLAY or by emailing ghctplay@gmail.com. The cost of the event is $40, and remember, it’s tax deductable. You can be the Bio Diva you were meant to be while helping support the arts in your community! Get those fans to come and support the show, and you could be the very first Miss GHCT!!
