Debbie Wileman, who captured world-wide attention during the pandemic with her vocal impressions of Judy Garland, Shirley Bassey, and more, will return to Carnegie Hall December 10 with "Judy Garland" We Need a Little Christmas.
North Essex, England native Wileman, who will perform Garland's signature Christmas songs as well as some newly arranged holiday hits, will be joined by multiple Tony winner Chita Rivera, Tony winner Barry Bostwick, and Oscar winner Margaret O’Brien.
The artists will be accompanied by a live orchestra, conducted by musical director and arranger Steve Orich.
The new trailer showcases the scale of the production design, as well as a first listen to the power ballad "Waiting on a Wish," one of the new original songs by Pasek and Paul.
