'We Need a Little Christmas Musical is a musical based on the 1966 Broadway musical Mame. Mame is a musical with music and lyrics by Jerry Herman and a book by Jerome Lawrence and Robert Edwin Lee. The story follows the life of an eccentric, wealthy aunt who takes in her orphaned nephew and teaches him the joys of life. The musical was adapted into a film in 1974 starring Lucille Ball. It has since been revived several times on Broadway and in regional theatres.'
