Sarah Brightman Brings Christmas Magic To Show In Ontario

The Christmas season is here in Western New York and that means Christmas shows galore.

One of the first ones of the season took place right on Thanksgiving evening when Sarah Brightman brought her Christmas show to the OLG Stage at the Fallsview Casino.

Brightman was a Broadway actress and singer who began her career in the musical "Cats" by Andrew Lloyd Webber. She also starred as Christine Daae in the musical "The Phantom of the Opera" and was part of the original London cast who recorded the album that sold over 40 million copies worldwide in 1987.

When she retired from the stage, she resumed her musical career and is currently on tour with a Christmas Show.

Our good friend David "Gus" Griesinger from BackstageAxxess was at the show with the camera in hand. (CHECK OUT PHOTOS AND FULL REVIEW)

During the show, Brightman was backed by a 16-piece choir that really set the mood for the Holiday season in Western New York and Southern Ontario.
