The Music Box - A Christmas Extravaganza takes centre stage at the Belfast Waterfront on Friday and Saturday, December 20-21.

Produced by and starring Peter Corry, The Music Box has rapidly evolved into one of the country’s most successful and best loved Christmas family shows since first being introduced to local audiences in 2009.

The Music Box is a breathtaking Christmas journey through a sparkling array of Christmas music gems, past and present, from traditional seasonal classics right through to contemporary seasonal songs, featuring the finest local school choirs, boy trebles, amazing young ballet dancers and a full adult cast.

This year The Music Box also proudly presents stars of London’s West End. It’s the perfect festive treat for family, friends and colleagues alike.

Over the last two Christmas seasons this hugely successful, family-friendly production featuring the very best of our local theatrical, singing and dancing talent has played to packed houses at Newtownabbey’s Theatre at the Mill.

Due to the enormous demand for tickets, Peter has had to find a new home for The Music Box. So this year the production will take up residence in the Waterfront’s Auditorium for three exclusive performances.

“The Music Box has proven an increasingly huge hit with family audiences and with all ages,” said Peter. “That’s because we perform music that everyone knows and which is universally adored across all generations - this is a show which parents, children and grandchildren can enjoy together. Isn’t that what Christmas is all about?”

Tickets for The Music Box - A Christmas Extravaganza are now on sale and available from the Waterfront and Ulster Hall Box Offices, by calling 028 9033 4455 and at www.waterfront.co.uk.
