"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)

Aren’t Christmas night performances common? Christmas Eve night performances are rare though.

They're somewhat common. There's usually a good percentage of tourists in town that want to see a show that night that aren't necessarily celebrating the holiday.

A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

That’s the point though. Far more people celebrate Christmas on Christmas Eve than on Christmas Day. So it stands to reason that by the time Christmas night rolls around, people are ready to get out and see a show.

^Far more people celebrate on Christmas Eve instead of Christmas Day??? Not that I"ve ever noticed. Both? Sure. But Eve over Day? Not that I"ve ever seen.

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

If people are going to see a movie or a show or anything like that, it will be on Christmas Day over Christmas Eve. In terms of Latino and Central, southern and Eastern European traditions, Eve is a much bigger deal than Day.
