In "Christmas is Coming Uptown," all of the traditional Dickensian characters come to life, dancing and swinging to a Harlem beat. Scrooge is a Harlem slumlord about to foreclose an apartment house, a recreation center and a church when his late partner and the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future take him on their rounds. He comes upon his own grave after watching Tiny Tim's burial procession and he's reformed. Shedding his nightshirt, he orders Chinese food and Jewish deli (the only food available this Christmas morn) for the Cratchits. The story is accentuated with rousing R & B and gospel music. WCBS Television calls it "eye popping, ear pleasing, exuberant entertainment." Tickets are now on sale for The "New" McCree Theatre's Broadway musical, "Christmas is Coming Uptown," with music by Garry Sherman, book by Philip Rose and Peter Udell, lyrics by Peter Udell. The story is based on A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens. Comin' Uptown is performing at the "New" McCree Theatre, 322 E. Hamilton, December 18 ? 27, 2008. Advance tickets for general admission are on sale at the theatre's box office, 322 E. Hamilton Avenue, from 10:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Flint-Genesee CVB's Pick of the Week...
- The Flint-Genesee County Convention & Visitors Bureau suggests the following discount package...
- Michigan Automotive History Starts in Flint:
Thousands visit Michigan yearly to get a glimpse of its mesmerizing Great Lakes. We'll give you another reason - automotive history. Since the early 1900s, the automotive industry has touched millions of families that call Michigan home. We invite you, and your families, to step back in time and discover these incredible automotive stories. At the Sloan Museum and Buick Gallery, witness the birth of General Motors, the UAW and the manufacturing industry that made Flint a leading industrial center. Then travel 30 minutes south of Flint, to Auburn Hills, and enjoy the "ride" at the Walter P. Chrysler Museum where more than 65 antique, custom and concept vehicles celebrate the proud American heritage of an automotive original. Then, somewhere between the fun, tour one of Flint's oldest Victorian Era homes, the Whaley Historical House Museum (optional tickets available).
Discounted, overnight packages are available starting as low as $75 per night, for a family of four, and includes admission to the Sloan/Buick Gallery, the Chrysler Museum and overnight accommodations at a Flint/Genesee County area hotel of your choice. For more information, visit "Overnight Pure FunPaks" or call the Flint-Genesee County Convention & Visitors Bureau at (810) 232-3261 or toll free at 1-877-FLINT-MI.
