Christmas with The Embers featuring Craig Woolard
Christmas with The Embers featuring Craig Woolard is a live musical performance hosted at The Rialto theater this December. This event serves as a holiday concert celebration featuring beach music icons performing seasonal classics to get audiences in the festive spirit.
Attendees can expect an energetic performance led by Craig Woolard and his band. The show includes various special guests and holiday icons like Santa Claus, Rudolph, and Frosty, ensuring a family friendly production. The musicians deliver their signature beach music sound blended with traditional holiday favorites throughout the evening. The production focuses on high quality live entertainment in a classic theater setting.
This concert is designed for fans of beach music, families looking for seasonal entertainment, and anyone who enjoys live holiday performances.
