Description

The world-famous Apollo Theater hosts a special holiday-themed night of its equally famous Amateur Night event. The show starts with a pre-party featuring video footage and DJ Jess spinning tunes. Once the performances begin, see the talented alumni of the show’s “Stars of Tomorrow” as they attempt to follow in the footsteps of artists such as H.E.R. and Ella Fitzgerald—who both got their start on this very stage.
