FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
FOLEY, ALABAMA, October 21, 2021 – Las Vegas’ longest running and most-awarded tribute show, is ready to celebrate the holidays as they launch their third Holiday show in Foley, Alabama. Legends in Concert opened its doors at OWA in 2019 and has been consistently met with excitement and enthusiastic crowds at its shows weekly. Following a successful run with the debut of the all-female fall show, the holiday lineup of performers begins on November 17, 2021.
The all-new Classic Christmas at OWA Theater will pay tribute to music royalty including Celine Dion, Karen Carpenter, Young Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley. Just as the Radio City Rockettes have become synonymous with the holiday season in New York City, the annual Holiday show at Legends in Concert has become part of the season’s celebrations in locations around the country. A dynamic, blockbuster opening number begins the festivities with The Brian Setzer Orchestra’s rendition of “Jingle Bells.” For the big finale, the Legends band brings music memories to life with a sensational tribute to the Trans-Siberian Orchestra’s “Christmas Eve in Sarajevo” (“Carol of the Bells”) and the entire cast will join them and perform “The Most Wonderful Time of the Year.” The magical sounds of the season are sure to fill the OWA Theater halls throughout the Christmas holidays.
“We are thrilled to launch the annual holiday version of our show in Coastal Alabama and present another new theme and some new acts with guests visiting the area, as well as for our amazingly supportive locals,” said Brian Brigner, Chief Operating Officer of Legends in Concert. “The show will feature signature hits from the stars that made them legendary, and holiday songs they recorded during their illustrious careers.”
Elisa Furr, currently featured on the E! Hit television show Clash Of The Cover Bands, will present the powerhouse vocals of Celine Dion, while Broadway performer Nathaniel Cullors will pay homage to the Young Michael Jackson, singing your favorite Jackson 5 hits. No superstar says Christmas more than Karen Carpenter, and no one does it better than Sally Olson, making her debut at OWA. Elvis is back in the building, as Leo Days will have a “Blue Christmas” without you this holiday season.
This very special holiday production at the OWA Theater begins Nov. 17 and continues through January 2. The theater has developed robust safety measures for all areas of the theater, that focuses on your safety and the health and safety of our staff and cast members.
