CONTENT advisory & AGE RECOMMENDATION

Irving Berlin’s White Christmas is a musical that celebrates love, friendship, and the holiday spirit. This production is family-friendly and suitable for all audiences. It contains mild thematic elements, including depictions of the post-World War II era, brief/mild comedic conflict, and the use of theatrical haze, strobe lighting effects, and artificial snow. Lakeshore does not “rate” productions, as sensitivities vary from person to person.
