When the holiday season arrives, there are just certain movies that you want to watch year after year. Everyone has their favorite, whether it is something like It’s a Wonderful Life, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, or A Charlie Brown Christmas, you always find time for these timeless classics. This holiday season, you will have the unique opportunity to see a special performance of A Charlie Brown Christmas-Live! From December 21-23, the San Francisco Symphony and their chorus will perform together with clips from the animated film as well as live actors narrating, singing, and dancing along with your favorite Peanuts Pals. A Charlie Brown Christmas has been a part of the holiday season for over 50 years because of such incredible images as Schroeder playing Christmas songs on his piano, the famous Charlie Brown Christmas tree, and, of course, Sally mistakenly saying “Hockey Stick” during the performance of their Christmas play directed by none other than Charlie Brown himself.
