This year, multi-platinum rock group Trans-Siberian Orchestra (TSO) kicks off a monumental winter tour on November 13th. This year marks a triple celebration: 20 years of their beloved rock opera “THE LOST CHRISTMAS EVE,” reaching their 20 millionth concertgoer, and surpassing a phenomenal $20 million donated to charity.
98.5 WKRZ and WNEP-TV are proud to welcome TSO when they return to Wilkes Barre for two spectacular shows on Sunday, November 24th at 2:30pm and 7:30pm at the ASM Global-managed Mohegan Arena. Tickets for both shows go on sale Friday, September 13th 10am at Ticketmaster.com or the NBT Bank Box Office at Mohegan Arena. A portion of the proceeds will benefit the Luzerne County Chapter of Sleep In Heavenly Peace charity. Beginning with the public on sale, a limited number of specially priced $49.99* tickets will be available for one week only.
“THE LOST CHRISTMAS EVE” is a product of the imagination of and based on TSO’s double-platinum CD of the same name. The plot is one that resonates with people deeply over the holiday season. Alone on Christmas Eve, a bitter old businessman wandered New York City. Once a rising star, he’d traded love, family, and joy for a life of solitude and regret. The tragic loss of his wife hardened his heart, pushing him away from his infant son and into decades of isolation. Then, a chance encounter with a mysterious girl led him to a life-altering phone call. His son, who he abandoned decades ago, was alive, a gentle soul caring for troubled newborns in a maternity ward. After seeking him out, the son gives a silent and forgiving gaze to his long-lost father. As they sit together, comforting innocent infants, a new reunited life together begins.
