Every day this December, Playbill will be getting into the spirit of the season with 31 Days of Holiday Cheer—sharing some of our favorite music videos from Broadway stars. Check in daily for classic tunes and new songs about Christmas, Hanukkah, and New Year's. And we even have some surprise new, original Playbill videos to share.
Talk about a talented family! Siblings Arielle Jacobs and Adam Jacobs have graced Broadway stages numerous times over the years. Last holiday season, the duo shared a festive mashup of "Merry Christmas Darling" and "Christmas Time is Here," complete with a cameo from Quinn the Christmas Pup.
Most recently seen on Broadway as Imelda Marcos in Here Lies Love, Arielle made her debut in Main Stem 2010, when she joined the cast of In the Heights as Nina Rosario. From there, Arielle played Nina in the first national tour of In the Heights, appeared on Broadway as Nessarose in Wicked and Princess Jasmine in Aladdin, and more.

Adam made his Broadway debut as the original Marius in the 2006 revival of Les Misérables. He then joined the cast of The Lion King as Simba, before originating the title role in Aladdin in 2014.
Though the siblings' runs in Wicked and Aladdin overlapped, they have yet to appear in a show together on the Main Stem. Our Christmas wish is that some day we'll see them share a song on a Broadway stage.
