TRANS-SIBERIAN ORCHESTRA 2016- THE GHOSTS OF CHRISTMAS EVE
Paul O’Neill launched a project in 1996 that over the past 20 years has become a critically-acclaimed, multi-platinum, musical powerhouse: Trans-Siberian Orchestra. The progressive rock group’s record-setting “rock theater” tours sell out venues year after year and have cemented TSO’s status as a must-attend, multi-generational, holiday tradition. Now, TSO’s creator/lyricist/composer O’Neill is proud to announce that in its Platinum anniversary year, the group is bringing back its treasured tale, “The Ghosts of Christmas Eve".

THE VIDEO
Trans-Siberian Orchestra are celebrating their 20th anniversary this year, and will bring back “The Ghosts of Christmas Eve” to more than 60 North American cities beginning Nov. 17. Check out a preview video above and the cities, dates and times below. TSO will play two shows in some cities.
The band says, “‘The Ghosts of Christmas Eve’ was an experiment, to take something that was conceived for TV and try to express that story live on stage. Integrating segments of the TV show, with a live narrator, and full rock band was something TSO had never done. It brought back so many memories to see Ossie Davis and everyone else who helped make that TV special into the annual tradition that it has become.”
“The overwhelming response from the fans during the 2015 Winter Tour drove the band’s decision to take it back out on the road this year. As always we have new artists, new special effects and lots of surprises in store.”
“The Ghosts of Christmas Eve” is a rock opera that follows the journey of a runaway who breaks into an abandoned theater on December 24, with the ghosts and spirits from the building’s past helping to turn her life around. It features songs such as “Christmas Eve/Sarajevo 12/24,” “O’ Come All Ye Faithful” and “Christmas Canon.”
