J.D., Fred, Jearlyn, Jevetta, and Billy Steele will add extra merriment to these performances by welcoming the next generation of family talent to the stage. Their children and grandchildren will join the melodic voices of the Steele siblings as they bring this holiday nostalgia to life.
A Christmas Celebration with the Steeles debuted in 1984 at the Cricket Theatre in Minneapolis. “We're still here after 40 years and we're still celebrating life and love,” said Jevetta Steele. The family performed this holiday special at various venues over the next 36 years until their show went on hiatus during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. The family returned in 2021 with a handful of virtual and in-person stage shows around Minnesota at smaller venues.
“We’re excited to offer A Christmas Celebration with the Steeles to audiences this holiday season,” said Rock What You Got President Buffie Blesi. “Our hope is that their voices fill this gorgeous theatre with tangible joy as audiences unite to celebrate this family’s incredible talent.”
Rock What You Got Fund is co-producing this cornerstone of Minnesota music.
