Drury Lane Theatre will present Irving Berlin's White Christmas to ring in this holiday season. Drury Lane artistic director William Osetek helms the production, set to run from October 29-January 3, 2016, with an official November 5 opening.

Based on the classic 1954 film starring Bing Crosby and Danny Kaye, White Christmas tells the story of two former Army buddies-turned-Broadway-stars who follow a pair of sisters to the charming Vermont inn where they plan to perform. In an effort to save the inn, the duos team up to put on a festive show packed with Irving Berlin favorites including "Blue Skies," "Count Your Blessings," "I Love a Piano," "I’ve Got My Love to Keep Me Warm," and "White Christmas."

The production will star Sean Allan Krill (Honeymoon in Vegas) as Bob Wallace, Matt Raftery (Beauty and the Beast) as Phil Davis, Gina Milo (Les Misérables) as Betty Haynes, and Erika Stephan (The Little Mermaid) as Judy Haynes.

The stage adaptation of White Christmas features a book by David Ives and Paul Blake and music and lyrics by Irving Berlin.
