This live performance brings to life the beloved story of The Polar Express, where audiences are transported to a world of wonder and holiday spirit.
Show Description:
The performance begins with a snowy, starry night Ellensburg Night setting the stage as children gather to board the magical train that will take them to the North Pole. As the train pulls into view, the music swells and the dancers—dressed in sparkling costumes—bring the world of The Polar Express to life with energetic and graceful choreography. The show features a mix of Ballet, Contemporary, Acro, Hip Hop, Tap and Jazz dance, reflecting the whimsical nature of the story.
Throughout the performance, the cast sings iconic songs from the beloved film and book, including the uplifting "Believe" and the hauntingly beautiful "When Christmas Comes to Town." The talented vocalists, both soloists and ensemble, fill the theater with joy and nostalgia, creating an immersive experience.
At the heart of the story is the journey of a young girl who learns to believe in the magic of Christmas. The lead character, along with the friendly conductor, her sister, and Santa himself, takes the audience on a thrilling adventure. The actors deliver powerful performances, capturing the magic, wonder, and excitement of the holiday season. Along the way, they encounter whimsical characters, experience the awe of the North Pole, and discover the true meaning of belief.
A highlight of the show is the dramatic arrival of Santa Claus, as he leads a stunning finale filled with jubilant dance, soaring vocals, and heartwarming moments. The entire cast comes together for a joyous celebration that leaves the audience with a renewed sense of holiday magic.
Perfect for families and audiences of all ages, The Polar Express: A Magical Hometown Holiday Journey is a heartwarming reminder of the power of belief and the spirit of Christmas.
