Roundabout Theatre Company's world premiere of new Irving Berlin musical Holiday Inn has extended its limited Broadway engagement by two weeks and will now conclude on 15 January 2017. Previews began on 1 September 2016 at Broadway's Studio 54, ahead of the production's official opening tonight.

He quickly discovers life isn't the same without a bit of song and dance. Jim's luck takes a spectacular turn when he meets Linda, a spirited schoolteacher with talent to spare. Together they turn the farmhouse into a fabulous inn with dazzling performances to celebrate each holiday, from Thanksgiving to the Fourth of July. But when Jim's best friend Ted tries to lure Linda away to be his new dance partner in Hollywood, will Jim be able to salvage his latest chance at love?"
