The Chris White Trio performs the music from A Charlie Brown Christmas, written by Vince Guaraldi, with Chris sharing the stories behind it along the way.
Chris White leads a three-piece group: piano, bass, and drums. Each year in Downers Grove, they perform the arrangements from A Charlie Brown Christmas, and Chris talks through the history of each piece between songs — how it was written, and how it's stayed part of the season for more than sixty years.
Yes. The show is family-friendly and works especially well for kids who know and love A Charlie Brown Christmas. We generally recommend it for ages 5 and up, and everyone, regardless of age, needs a ticket.
It's a live concert, not a screening of the film — the trio performs the music live, with Chris sharing the stories behind it along the way. The show runs a little over an hour, with no intermission.
No. Seating is general admission, and every ticket holder is guaranteed a seat. Doors open 10 minutes before each performance. If you have seating requests or requirements, plan to arrive a little earlier.
Tickets must be purchased in advance — we don't sell at the door, and performances have sold out in the past, so we recommend getting tickets early. Check-in is paperless: we'll have your name on our guest list, just show your ID when you arrive. If you purchased tickets for a group, please arrive before your guests so we can check everyone in under your name.
Yes. The auditorium is on the ground floor, and accessible restrooms are available.
