Thirty Saints Productions proudly announces the highly successful launch of THE HOLIDAY SONGBOOK, the newest edition—and first nationally released title—of the newly expanded Songbook Series. After opening this season to packed houses, glowing reviews, and immediate multi-state bookings, the production is now officially available for licensing to theatres, presenters, and performing arts organizations across the country.
Cherry and Spoon praised the show as:
“A warm and cozy tonic… a really fun and festive celebration of holiday music.”
Lucas Chase, Executive Director of The Mabel Tainter Theatre, called it:
“A masterwork anthology of the most beloved music of the 20th and 21st century. Audiences are transported.”
A Fresh, Joyful, Story-Driven Holiday Experience
Blending humor, history, and heart, THE HOLIDAY SONGBOOK takes audiences on a musical journey through centuries of winter music—from early wassailing traditions to modern-day holiday chart-toppers. The production combines engaging narration, fascinating backstories, and sparkling vocal arrangements to create a festive, family-friendly evening of top-tier entertainment.

About The Songbook Series
The Songbook Series began with early explorations at Paper Mill Playhouse and Stage One Wichita, but it found its full identity and nationwide momentum during its seven-year run at The Ordway Center for the Performing Arts, where it became a major audience-development force and a fan favorite.
Rebranded from Broadway Songbook to The Songbook Series to reflect a broader musical landscape, the project explores iconic songs and the stories behind them—combining powerful vocals, personal storytelling, and accessible music history.
Past editions have explored the works of Sondheim, Irving Berlin, Mercer, Rodgers & Hart, Cole Porter, Kander & Ebb, Singer-Songwriters of the 1970s, the Birth of Rock & Roll, Hollywood’s Golden Age, and more. The virtual version won BroadwayWorld’s Best Streaming Concert (2021).
With The Holiday Songbook anchoring the national rollout, additional titles are now in development for 2027, including:
• Broadway in Love
• The Women Who Wrote the Songs
• Yankee Doodle Boy
