David Elder, Kelly Sheehan, and More to Star in New Bedford Festival Theatre's WHITE CHRISTMAS

New Bedford Festival Theatre and Executive Producer Wendy Hall have announced the casting for their production of Irving Berlin's White Christmas which will be presented November 26 - December 4, 2022 at the Zeiterion Performing Arts Center at 684 Purchase Street New Bedford, MA.

Singers Bob Wallace and Phil Davis join sister act Betty and Judy Haynes to perform a Christmas show in rural Vermont. There, they run into Gen. Waverly, the boys' commander in World War II, who, they learn, is having financial difficulties; his quaint country inn is failing. So what's the foursome to do but plan a yuletide miracle: a fun-filled musical extravaganza that's sure to put Waverly and his business in the black!
