The Animated Classic ‘Rudolph’ Comes to Life at the Capitol Theatre

The Capitol Theatre continues to bring non-stop hit show after hit show to downtown Yakima and their Capitol Best series is always full of fun, live stage performances.

An undeniable classic during the holiday season is watching the stop-motion animated film Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. The film, originally released in 1964, captivated audiences to a new story based on the Christmas song and has been with us ever since then.

On December 13 and December 14 you can watch this animated classic come to life live on stage at the Capitol Theatre.

Rudolph, Sam the Snowman, Hermey the Elf, Yukon Cornelius, and even the gigantic Abominable Snowman all make their presence known on stage along with the cast of characters from the movie.

The costuming is fantastic as, though it's live, their appearances mimic that of the film. It's a lot of fun!
