Touchstone Theatre is bringing back its long-loved holiday tradition with the 26th annual Christmas City Follies, running December 4 to 21, 2025. The original, homegrown variety show has become a seasonal favorite for Lehigh Valley audiences, celebrated for its mix of music, comedy, and surprising new moments each year.
Presented in Touchstone’s Southside Bethlehem black box theatre, the production is rebuilt from scratch annually. Each season, writers, performers, and designers collaborate to create a completely fresh experience while keeping a few returning fan favorites. The result is a family-friendly performance that feels both familiar and new.
Audiences can catch the cast in the community before opening night. Follies performers will appear at the Northside Christmas Tree Lighting on November 28 and will join the Downtown Bethlehem Association’s Live Advent Calendar from December 1 to 23.
This year’s production is supported by Peoples Security Bank and Trust, along with Northampton County, Astound Broadband, WDIY, Lehigh Valley with Love, Working Dog Press, and the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts.
Performances take place at 8 p.m. Thursdays through Saturdays and 2 p.m. Sundays, with additional matinees on December 13 and 20 and an added evening show on December 17. Tickets are $35 for adults, $25 for students and seniors, and Pay What You Will on Thursdays. More information and tickets are available at touchstone.org.
