They're A Little Bit Broadway: Donny & Marie To Bring Christmas Show To Great White Way
UPDATE: November 10, 2010
Late yesterday, The New York Times confirmed that Donny and Marie Osmond will deck the halls of the Marquis Theatre with their own special blend of holiday cheer. With those pearly whites, they'll put their own spin on the Great White Way via Donny & Marie - A Broadway Christmas.
The singing siblings already possess Broadway musical credits. Donny Osmond made his Rialto debut in the failed 1982 revival of Little Johnny Jones before taking on the role of Gaston in Beauty And The Beast in 2006. Marie Osmond served as one of the replacements for Donna Murphy in the last revival of The King And I in the late 90s.
Donny Osmond's website describes the show as follows:
In the holiday tradition of the “Osmond Family Christmas” television specials, Donny and Marie invite you and your family to join them to celebrate the joy of the season in true Osmond fashion, in person, as the pair share a Broadway stage for the first time. With their trademark show-stopping Christmas production numbers, Donny & Marie - A Broadway Christmas features your favorite hits mixed with the irresistible chemistry that made them international stars.
2008 marked the 50th anniversary for the Osmonds as a performing family.
The 12 performance run of Donny & Marie: A Broadway Christmas is scheduled to begin on December 9 before dashing through the snow on December 19. Tickets go on sale this morning at 10 a.m. EDT. UPDATE: The show has now been extended through December 30, 2010.
