Broadway Christmas Wonderland was the first world-class Christmas show to be performed in Japan. It has been performed annually since then, generally for two weeks leading up to Christmas as a Christmas special at the Tokyu Theater Orb in Hikarie in Shibuya since 2016. The show consists of well-loved music performed by exceptional singers. From the name 'Broadway,' expect breathtaking costumes and scenery, entertaining dancing, figure skating, and chorus lines.
The show is approximately two hours long with one intermission. There are two showings a day on weekends and one showing a day on weekdays. Children under three years old are not permitted into the theater. Tickets go on sale in mid-October.
