Christmas In Spenard is an Alaskan musical comedy that is due to be per formed at the Tap Root pub in Anchorage from November 28th to December 19th.

It is about two hours long and is a multimedia extravaganza, with a spectacular high definition screen and approximately three minutes of sentimental holiday fluff thrown in for good measure.

Entry starts at just $11 for the cheap seats - and the best views in the house can be accessed for £21.

This could be the perfect excursion for holidaymakers enjoying a city break in Anchorage, as it will get them in the mood for the festive season at the same time as offering a sampling of local culture.

Residents at the Millennium Alaskan Hotel Anchorage will find that they are ideally located to access the venue.

It is just a mile and a half away from the accommodation - and the distance can be covered in little more than five minutes by jumping in a taxi.
