Though Portland's snowy season lasts for only one week at the end of January, like all cities we dream each year of a white christmas. 40 years ago, in December of 1968, the gift of choice for anyone aged 12 to 30 was #1 recordThe Beatles. Affectionately known as "The White Album" for its monochrome cover, The Beatleshas become the 10th-highest-selling album of all time, an acknowledged classic of popular music. As it sat under shimmering aluminum trees the world over, families watched the crew of the Apollo 8 send back the first ever images of the Moon's far side.
To pay tribute to that monumental holiday season, our own Fab Four have orchestrated a colossal love-in of music and circus arts. Telling a story of one clown's riotous adventure through love, fame, class struggle, and kung-fu; with the music of The Beatles and the fairytale steampunk stylings of Wanderlust;White Album Christmaswill amaze and amuse three generations of children, parents, and grandparents in the vintage theater ambiance of The Bossanova Ballroom. More fun than The Nutcracker, Jesus Christ Superstar, and The Singing Christmas Treecombined.
