A Holiday Spectacular!

Selfies with Santa, space for dancing, and many of your favorite Christmas and winter-themed songs, all in one place! Whether on a date or with the whole family, come to The State Theatre on Sunday, December 1st as Crooner & Co. Swing Band and the Nittany Knights Barbershop Chorus partner to create a truly spectacular production to usher in the holiday season.

Crooner & Co. Swing Band, back by popular demand, brings to life the excitement of the swing era. Founded in 2018, they pride themselves on blending standards and favorites with pop music in the swing style, serving as a bridge between the jazz vocalists of past decades and modern vocalists of today. You do not want to miss hearing this band perform! Created, in part, to perform live music for swing dancing, they frequently partner with local teachers to provide beginner swing dance instruction before their shows. For more information about current bookings and upcoming shows, follow them on Facebook and reach out to add your email address to their listserv!

The Nittany Knights Barbershop Chorus, founded in 1964, specializes in barbershop harmony, singing both traditional barbershop songs and contemporary music arranged in the barbershop style. They can be found performing all year long throughout central PA in a variety of venues and for various events, including a spring show that features a guest barbershop quartet that has competed internationally. For more information about the Nittany Knights organization, their work with school-age students, or their philanthropic endeavors—or even joining as a singer—check out their website!

This event is brought to you by Your Cigar Den of State College, with locations at 127 S. Fraser St. and 355 Colonnade Blvd.
