Ten Best Christmas Movie, TV and Stage Musical Moments

On this Christmas Eve of 2015, I would like to thank my readers for just a little over a year of supporting and reading my blog. Many of you love musicals as much as I do, and it is nice to have a place where I can write about what I love and interact with people who understand.

As a Merry Christmas, I have assembled my top-ten favorite musical moments from film, television and theatre to help put you in the spirit. No commentary, just the joy of Christmas shared with you. May your days be merry and bright!

“There’s a Place Called Home” – A Christmas Carol (2006-TV version)

“Thank You Very Much” – Scrooge (1970 - Film) 

“Heat Miser/Snow Miser” – A Year Without a Santa Claus (1974-TV)

“One Foot in Front of the Other” – Santa Claus is Coming to Town (1970-TV)

“Turkey Lurkey Time” – Camp (2003-Film)

Okay…I know this is from Promises, Promises originally- but this version amuses and delights me... 

“Holly Jolly Christmas” – Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (1964-TV)

“Ding Dong Merrily on High” from Save the Children (1988-TV) – London cast of Les Miserables

“Snow” – White Christmas (1954-Film)
