Enchanting holiday tale of a young runaway who has broken into an old movie palace, looking for shelter on a snow-filled Christmas Eve.

A great way to spend 45 minutes enjoying a most unique and moving collage of Christmas music performed like none other. This all too short collection of Christmas music surrounds moves heart and soul and reminds everyone what Christmas is all about. Allie Sheridan as the Runaway, whose eyes and smiles takes takes us back to our childhood dreams and Ossie Davis as The Caretaker shows us that anything is possible. TSO brings it all together and leaves the viewer wanting more. Do yourself, your friends and family a favor; turn off the cells, kick back, crank up the volume and dim the lights. As a gift, your friends will treasure it for a long time. This is on the shelf along side with Wizard of Oz, A Christmas Carol, and Miracle on 24th St.
I'm a rather recent fan of TSO; what got my attention was the Christmas video being emailed around with house lights & "Wizards In Winter" as the sound track. My only complaints about this video are that 1)there isn't more music, & 2)it doesn't show more of the musicians performing. I LOVE watching Al Pitrelli play guitar, he's awesome! I've got all of Savatage's CDs, save 2, & Jon Oliva's "Tage Mahal", as well as all of TSO's CDs. The performances by the guest artists are wonderful, and the video contains a song that isn't on any of the TSO CDs. I've already purchased my tickets for their concert here coming Nov. 10, and can't wait!
This is a fantastic video that will get anyone into the Christmas Spirit. The TSO offers a great take on Christmas music and stories. Ossie Davis as the caretaker once again demonstrates the wide range of acting he possesses. Seeing them in concert was one of the most amazing shows I've seen. From the real snow that fell in the concert hall to the lights and lasers that filled the room. The voices of the performers were fantastic and the music mesmerizing. TSO third Christmas Album - The Lost Christmas Eve, is full of the same enchanting music and a heart felt Christmas story. If you enjoy the music of their first two Christmas albums, get the third and get ready for next Christmas.
Simply the greatest Christmas special ever made. The Trans-Siberian Orchestra are musical geniuses!!! This is GREAT!!!
