How do you turn a half-hour TV special into a 90-minute stage show? With creative choreography and a healthy dose of Christmas carols.

That’s “A Charlie Brown Christmas: Live on Stage,” a sprightly holiday show that includes the 1965 original inside a sandwich of dances.

Depressed by the commercialization of the holiday, Charlie Brown laments the season and relies on his friends to pull him up. His dog Snoopy , meanwhile, is all in on garish light displays.

Simpson should have put them in the heat of the action and made this a little less of a spectacle.
