Neil Patrick Harris Surprises Visitors At It's Christmas. Keep It Real. Event
Live Christmas Living Room Brings Talking Tree with Surprise Gifts in Support of Real Christmas Trees
NEW YORK, Dec. 8, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Neil Patrick Harris made a surprise appearance at a truly one-of-a-kind event from the It's Christmas. Keep It Real. campaign, which promotes and celebrates real Christmas trees. Spreading holiday cheer and encouraging guests to 'Keep It Real' this Christmas season, visitors were dazzled by a Christmas living room scene come to life with an animated talking real Christmas tree at New York's charming South Street Seaport. To support the cause, Neil Patrick Harris took a surprise turn as the voice of the tree and gifted passersby with delightful Christmas presents such as tickets to the hottest show in town Hamilton, beloved classic The Lion King, and brand new Apple Watches!
The fun scene evoked the nostalgia of holidays past, decked out with cozy couches, sparkling Christmas decorations, toys of yore and even a snarky, animated Nutcracker. Partnering with Upright Citizens Brigade, the tree and life sized Nutcracker came alive, voiced by UCB's John Murray and Matt Cutler. Throughout the day the tree surprised visitors with special giveaways and some of the most coveted Christmas toys from the past few decades, getting them to recount humorous Christmas stories and cherished memories. In a lighthearted twist, guests' startled reactions to the unexpected talking tree and surprise celebrity visitor were captured on tiny cameras hidden throughout the room.
