Christmas with The Nelsons tells the story of three family Christmases in the lives of America’s First Family of Entertainment, The Nelsons! This heart-warming multi-media live concert experience stars the third generation of No. 1 Nelson Family hit makers, Matthew and Gunnar Nelson. A genuine blend of Everly Brothers-style harmonies and Smothers Brothers-style comedy, multi-platinum recording artists Matthew and Gunnar have been thrilling sell-out audiences world-wide for the past decade with their high integrity Ricky Nelson Remembered show—and they’ve got a new gift for you to open. Not merely a rock concert with a few holiday songs thrown in—Christmas with The Nelsons delivers Christmas classics the Nelson Family way. Interweaving quick humor, soaring sibling vocals and state-of-the-art big screen video, Matthew and Gunnar’s completely new show will take you on a sleigh ride through time. From the holly jolly 50’s when their father Ricky was a little boy intent on duct-taping antlers on the family cat—to the 70’s when Santa Claus came to town delivering Schwinn’s for the twins in the era before bike helmets—to rockin’ around the Christmas tree today with the newest generation of Nelson Family kids who prove that yes—we did in fact turn out to be just like our parents after all. This is the Christmas show all ages of girls and boys have been waiting for. All new big screen video—all new set of classic Christmas songs with Matthew and Gunnar Nelson at their very best! The entire Nelson Family invites you to celebrate! On sale September 13, 2016, at 9:00 a.m. online and at Activities; $45 per person; Renaissance Theatre
