The mood will definitely be festive and bright at the Carpenter as the legendary Harry James Orchestra does that thing called swing at this special holiday concert. The world-renowned big band, which has been bopping since the 1940s with popular tunes like "Two O'Clock Jump," "Skylark," "I'll Get By," "I Had the Craziest Dream" and more, is led by trumpet master Fred Radke, and will fill the auditorium with the jumping jazz sounds of Christmas favorites and other classic numbers.

Musical Theatre West Brings Spamalot to Long Beach

Full Price:: $53.00 - $68.00
Our Price:: $26.50 - $34.00

Musical Theatre West brings its 59th season to a close with one of the funniest shows on Earth, Monty Python's Spamalot. Winner of the 2005 Tony Award for Best Musical, Spamalot lovingly rips off the film classic Monty Python and The Holy Grail to tell the tale of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table as they embark on their epic quest. However, diverting a bit from the real story, this hilarious musical features such oddities as a line of beautiful dancing girls, flatulent Frenchmen and killer rabbits. A cast of professional actors from the Broadway, Hollywood and national tours, as well as the best in local talent, will perform the show with the original Broadway sets and costumes. Learn More

First trumpeter, Fred Radke, and the members of the Harry James Orchestra, were awesome. Our party of 5 thoroughly enjoyed the concert. Mr. Radke has great humor, timing and a beautiful voice as well
as a great trumpeter!
