The Dean Martin Story: Christmas Special

Dean Martin’s music, comedy and holiday charm come together in a theatrical tribute starring Las Vegas headliner Drew Anthony. The Dean Martin Story - Christmas Special is presented Sunday, December 6, with performances at 3 and 7 p.m. at the Aventura Arts & Cultural Center.

Presented by Drew Anthony Productions, the show traces moments from Martin’s career through songs, storytelling and staged appearances inspired by figures from his entertainment circle. The production includes nods to Jerry Lewis, Marilyn Monroe, Johnny Carson and Peggy Lee, placing Martin’s music within the broader world of mid-century popular entertainment.

The Christmas edition adds seasonal material to the tribute format, combining classic showmanship with holiday selections. Anthony performs as Martin, drawing on the singer and actor’s relaxed stage persona, crooner style and enduring association with Las Vegas entertainment.
