For Immediate Release

November 28, 2006

The Paramount Theater is pleased to announce the schedule for this year's Holiday Spotlight at The Paramount, which will take place on Sunday, December 10 from 1 pm to 6:30 pm.  In recent Decembers, Holiday Spotlight at The Paramount has featured hundreds of area singers, musicians, dancers, and actors.  A Downtown for the Holidays tradition, this celebration of local performers continues in 2006 with appearances by nine groups. 

This year, Holiday Spotlight performers will again be showcased inside the theater on the stage of the restored Paramount.  The public is invited to enjoy a new performance of holiday cheer at every half hour.  Admission is free.  With many talented groups making return appearances, Holiday Spotlight is a golden opportunity to see local talent shine.
