Not a fan of Let Christmas Shine
by ElfRiley on 12/27/14Hobby Center - HoustonRating: 3 out of 5I preferred the original versions with more traditional music and costumes. The Santa jackets and green velvet fur hooded ensembles have been dropped and replaced with Let Christmas Shine.. Unfortunately, the song is incorporated over and over throughout the show and thus forcing more traditional music to be abandoned.. Not sure what the impetus for the change has been and despite being a huge fan of the show for 50 years , I definitely would hesitate before buying tickets again.. I took 10 family members this year ( 4 seats in Row A- left orchestra , 4 seats in Row B- left orchestra and 2 tickets in the pit - row AAA) and spent almost $ 2,000.00 - only to be subjected repeatedly to a song I had never heard before.. I could understand having one or two numbers with new songs but the repetition of Let Christmas Shine just became annoying..
