Christmas shows are appearing in Connecticut even before Thanksgiving has happened. Keep up with the premature holiday spirit with this handy list of impending "Nutcracker"s and "It's a Wonderful Life"s, not to mention The Illusionists and Trans-Siberian Orchestra.
Dan Gabel said he envisioned a classic, vintage-inspired holiday television show just like the ones you used to know.
It s online rather than on TV, but Happy Holidays with Dan Gabel and The Abletones is a reality live from The Hanover Theatre and Conservatory for the Performing Arts.
Actually, the first number, It s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year, shows Steve Gagliastro, in excellent voice, and the tuneful Moon Maids vocal group of Annie Kerins, Sarah Callinan and Emily Greenslit making their way from Worcester Common and outside Worcester City Hall to The Hanover Theatre.
Inside, Dan Gabel and the Abletones Big Band and the Moon Maids begin with Happy Holidays.
