A family holiday tradition performed live at the Merrill Auditorium. "The show's delicious palette of color and spectacle makes it a delight for children who attend. The Christmas tree, richly dressed in lights and baubles, grows dramatically. Giant mice fight humorously, against tiny but valiant toy soldiers. Little children emerge from the impossibly large skirts of Mother Ginger" -Portland Press Herald

In 1997, Christopher Plummer opened Barrymore at Broadway’s Music Box Theatre. His performance had audiences standing in amazement and showering him with Bravo’s. It sent critics searching for superlatives. That year Christopher Plummer won The Tony Award, The Drama Desk Award and the Outer Critics’ Circle Award. Plummer defined “tour de Force” and “clean sweep.” Barrymore, written by the distinguished, award-winning playwright, William Luce, is based on the life of actor John Barrymore. Barrymore was directed by three-time Tony Award winner, Gene Saks.
