A cast of eight stars from Medora’s past and present will travel across North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, and Minnesota, performing 30 times in 22 communities to help audiences get into the holiday spirit.

A Magical Medora Christmas is a family-friendly holiday show that’s full of spirit, humor and expertly-performed music that audiences have grown to expect from Medora. The 2021 tour is anchored by veteran Medora entertainer Bill Sorenson.

“The response to our tour has been overwhelmingly positive and extremely rewarding,” Sorenson said.

“This year folks are in for a lot of fun. We’re bringing back some of our most well-received songs, and adding a lot of new material, all performed by some of the very best talent Medora has ever offered.”

The cast includes five performers fresh off the 2021 Medora Musical, including Taylor Leet of Bismarck and J’Kobe Wallace of Minot, as well as Jessica Brandish, Travis Smith, and Adam Vogel. Medora Musical alumni Chad Willow and Amberly Rosen round out the cast.

Starting at $3.75/week.
