Christmas show to aid children's theater

The Bigfork Playhouse Children’s Theatre presents “A Touch of Christmas,” featuring Brach Thomson and friends in concert, Saturday.

The show begins at 7:30 p.m. in the Bigfork Center for the Performing Arts.

Thomson will play rock, fusion, jazz, funk, blues and more to familiar Christmas favorites. He will play live on multiple keyboards, synthesizers and on piano, “just like Manheim Steamroller Christmas and Transiberian Orchestra.”

All music is arranged by Thomson using MIDI and computer to give the feel of a larger orchestra and rock/jazz combos.

Special guests include vocalist Tonja King, Vocal Vertigo, 5 and Holding and Bigfork Playhouse Children’s Theatre’s Choir No. 1.

“A Touch of Christmas” is a fundraising concert to benefit the Bigfork Playhouse Children's Theatre. Admission is $8. Tickets are available online and at the door; the box office opens one hour prior to the performance.

The show starts right after the holiday parade. Hot cocoa, peppermint schnapps and hot buttered rum will be available.
