About

DEE SNIDER’S ROCK & ROLL CHRISTMAS TALE tells the story of Däisy Cütter, a heavy metal bar band looking to make it big even though the 80s are LONG over. This year, these four guys are ready to take the ultimate step and, in mythic rock tradition, sell their souls to the devil in exchange for success beyond their wildest metal dreams! But every time they try to seal the infernal pact, their head-banging anthems turn into warm-hearted carols. Soon these rockers are forced to realize their dreams of stardom are no match for the Christmas spirit. Dee Snider, infamous lead singer of Twisted Sister, has created and stars in a VERY funny, VERY rocking and (sshhh!) VERY sweet new holiday musical, guaranteed to rock your holiday.

    Christmas Tale was fun for all ages

    by WIPetMom on 12/28/14Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    My husband, I and my brother (in our 40's) attended our first show at this theater. The Christmas Tale was fun and kept our interest throughout the show. They quickly changed scenes and costumes with no intermission. They had a lot of energy and was a nice holiday show for families and all ages.

    Very fun!

    by TawnyKitaen on 12/27/14Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    Such a fun show! You don't have to be a Twisted Sister fan or child of the 80s, but If you are, you'll laugh at the extras Snyder wove into the musical. So glad we spent our Christmas Eve afternoon enjoying rock n roll carols with the cast! Definitely recommend!

    A New Christmas Classic

    by Suburbania on 12/27/14Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    The show was a blast. Such a unique take on a Christmas story. The music was incredible, and the transitions from heavy metal classics to heavy metal Christmas was seamless. The entire theater was rocking. Dee Snider's narration was excellent, and the talent on stage awesome. Definitley not your traditional Christmas story, and I will never think of a "Dear Santa" letter the same way again!

    Best Christmas Show Ever!

    by mandylovesjonasbrothers on 12/27/14Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    I was trying to find a show to see on Christmas Eve this year that my husband and I would enjoy as well as my three kids, ages 16-21. Boy did I find it! Never would I have thought that a rocker from the 80's could pull off such a show, but this was the best Christmas Show I have ever seen. It was kinda like a "Rock of Ages" with a Christmas theme. My kids loved it! We loved it! It was funny, entertaining, and even sentimental with a holiday touch. The venue was perfect for such a show with a feeling of intimacy, and a great view no matter where you sat. We were lucky enough to be in the 5th row to see all the facial expressions, but that didn't matter, cause the actors came into the audience. If this show goes to Broadway, I would consider it a must see! Too bad it was only in Chicago for such a short time! My hats off to Dee Snider! I hope he writes another, I'd go see it!

    Great Holliday Entertainment

    by S6Fez on 12/27/14Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    Whilst on a visit to Chicago from UK was looking for some festive entertainment having gorged on all the sports events on offer. I thoroughly enjoyed this show it was funny, with great music from the big hair era; with plenty of spandex, had a great Christmas feel (seeing it on Christmas Eve was cool). the show was the icing on a perfect trip to the Windy City

    Great venue for this show! The on-stage singing/dancing rivaled some of the best shows in Chicago.

    Campy but so hilarious

    by CathyMcB on 12/24/14Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    My family had a great time. We are still trying to make our kids believe that 80s rock Stars dressed that way!

    Dee Snider makes Christmas ROCK!

    by MamaRock69 on 12/23/14Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    I absolutely loved the entire show! My only regret is not taking advantage of getting Backstage Passes. For a once in a lifetime trip to Chicago and such an amazing time of year, I am just kicking myself for it. Do NOT miss this show and take your kids because it is Rock family friendly!

    Enjoyable and uplifting. It was great with Dee narrating and then singing in the end. The cast was great - great voices, good music. Maybe would have liked a little more music, but enjoyed the program.

    Dee Snider's Christmas Show was so Fun!!

    by KimmerGing on 12/23/14Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    Our family (kids in their 20's) thoroughly enjoyed this musical. We all laughed so much and really got into the story line. The characters were funny and the music was awesome. I really wasn't sure what to expect and it definitely exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend seeing it if you still have time. I could watch it again and I think I would enjoy it just as much.

    Great show

    by JDNaper on 12/23/14Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - Chicago

    Dee Snider's Rock & Roll Christmas Tale is a great show that shouldn't be missed. Rockers will love the music, and it's fine for the kids as well. The story is well written, with a cute ending.
