"I am so pleased that Berkshire Theatre Group, our local businesses, and community members are committed to the Sixth Annual Children's Holiday Extravaganza. The Extravaganza provides a holiday experience for our children and their families that excites their spirit and brings a smile to all. To be able to hold the Extravaganza in these challenging times is priceless." says Kathy Amuso, chairperson of the event, which under her leadership this annual community holiday event started in 2015.

Kate Maguire, BTG Artistic Director/CEO says; "Community means everything to Berkshire Theatre Group. Whether we are opening doorways of growth to artists, audiences or students, we are fundamentally aware that the impact of what we do must be a part of connecting and transforming our beloved Berkshire community. Holiday Extravaganza for years has enriched the season with outreach and pure artistic joy. In a year, that presents severe challenges on so many levels, we persevere and continue this great tradition."

Carrie Holland, Managing Director at Mill Town continued; "The Berkshire theatres have shown so much leadership in creative project execution since the outbreak of COVID-19 and I am so happy that we can partner with Berkshire Theatre Group to extend that creativity in a way that means so much to our local community members. Holiday traditions are sure to look very differently this year, but it is wonderful to see that some will be able to continue on, albeit slightly altered."

Pre-recorded songs from the casts of Godspell and Shrek the Musical
