CHRISTMAS BRINGS THE LENNON SISTERS, CHAMPIONSHIP ICE SKATING, AND MORE TO ANDY WILLIAMS PAC IN BRANSON, MO Most wonderful time of the year. For Immediate Release From: Stacey J. Miller, Publicist S. J. Miller Communications 781-986-0732 BRANSON, MO –"Branson's most popular Christmas Show returns to the Andy Williams Performing Arts Center, and it continues a tradition that has continued uninterrupted since the sixties. The Andy Williams Ozark Mountain Christmas Show Presented by Jimmy Osmond stars the legendary Lennon Sisters who are celebrating their 25th anniversary of performing in Branson. Joining them will be the Ice Angels, and I'm so excited to bring championship ice skating home to Branson," says Jimmy Osmond, an original member of America's favorite musical family, the Osmonds, and the owner of the Andy Williams Performing Arts Center. Osmond first learned to produce ice shows during the years when he appeared with his family on the Andy Williams Christmas specials. "The Andy Williams shows always featured ice skating," Osmond recalls. He has since produced ice shows all over the world, including at the Osmond Family Theater in Branson. "Now I'm excited to have that exciting element back in my shows where it belongs. I'm especially thrilled to be working with world-class producer Jeb K. Rand, president and executive producer of Rand Enterprises & Productions." The ice skating show combines the beauty and athleticism of figure skating with live singers, actors, and a warm holiday feel. The production includes a festive mix of classic Christmas melodies, along with new modern-day favorites. Special sections of the show also include audience participation numbers, and surprise visits from some of Santa’s favorite pals! Mr. Rand’s entertainment career spans over 30 years – first as a U.S. Team Member (figure skating), and then as a lead performer with renowned productions around the globe. His shows feature top-tier talent from the worlds of skating, theatre, and television. In addition to ice skating, the 26th year of The Andy Williams Ozark Mountain Christmas Show Presented by Jimmy Osmond will feature The Lennon Sisters; special guests including Britain’s Got Talent singing sensation Charlie Green; America’s Got Talent dynamic trio “AYO — Voices Of Glory"; the magical dancing of Andy’s favorite specialty act, Pasha and Aliona; the Lennon Granddaughters; and the Moon River Band. In addition to presenting the show, Jimmy Osmond will host the show on select dates. "Come enjoy all the variety that made Andy’s Christmas shows so spectacular," Osmond concludes. "And welcome home to Branson a fun-filled magic frozen journey that will warm your hearts into the Christmas holidays, guaranteed to delight audiences of all ages!" Osmond will perform a montage to embrace memories of the country legends who called Branson home. He'll remember such greats as Loretta Lynn, Glenn Campbell, Conway Twitty, and more who are so much part of his extended entertainment family. All shows run from Saturday through Monday, with no Sunday performances. You can buy tickets at the Andy Williams Performing Arts Center Box Office in Branson.
